The findings suggest that the strong partnership between the community partner (the Title I school) and the university; coupled with the service learning experience and the use of technology increased the pre-service teacher’s understanding of content skills, reflective inquiry and helped them to view the integration of technology as part of a sustainable pedagogy.
