Popis: The authors recognize that educators must consider the nature and consequences of technology's use in financial education. Pointing out that both technological presence and instructional methodology represent determinants of pedagogical appropriateness, the authors describe a study measuring whether socioeconomic elements influence educators' agreement with technology uses for financial education in grades K-4. While they find that settings (e.g. urban or rural) affect agreement with technology items, they call for further study to refine and clarify the associated relationships.
