Abstract
Teacher education programs face several challenges when it comes to preparing classroom teachers to be successful in the integration of technology in their instructional practices to support teaching and learning. These challenges include technology self-efficacy, technology proficiency, and the rapidly changing technology tools that are available. There is a need to replace current instructional practices that focus on current technologies with processes that teach candidates to be future thinkers, to imagine the classroom of tomorrow, to develop an inquisitive mindset, and to have the resilience to experiment with technologies that may have not even been developed yet. Identifying the processes that could address these challenges is the focus of this chapter.

Integrating Theory and Practice to Identify Contemporary Best Practice Factors in USA Not-for-Profits
Models are analog or digital. Analog models are conceptual diagrams or figures intended to show how a system behaves. Digital models are operational versions of conceptual models, generally programmed in a language or in a spreadsheet, able to accept variables to provide an expected value in order to predict an outcome for planning purposes.

Using Arts Education in STEM With the Science and Engineering Practice of Developing and Using Models
“Models include diagrams, physical replicas, mathematical representations, analogies, and computer simulations. Although models do not correspond exactly to the real world, they bring certain features into focus while obscuring others. All models contain approximations and assumptions that limit the range of validity and predictive power, so it is important for students to recognize their limitations” ( NGSS Lead States, 2013 , p. 386).

Frameworks for Integration of Future-Oriented Computational Thinking in K-12 Schools
“formal structures represented in mathematics and diagrams that help us to understand the world.” Models can simplify the complexity of complex relationships, they can use mathematics as analogies to natural processes, and they can be artificial-but-helpful constructs. ( Page, 2018 , p. 1) Many models, sometimes called simulations, use visual representations of relationships such as those in NetLogo. The algorithms used in a machine learning task form the “learning model” of the system.
