An Exploration of Emotional Intelligence and Technology Skills Among Students ata Midwestern University

The author of this study sought to explore the relationship between emotional intelligence and technology proficiency among undergraduate pre-service teachers enrolled in a teacher preparation technology course. The study seeks to contribute to the understanding of the relationship between two important educational elements (emotional intelligence and technology skills) that need to be applied to a twenty-first century education. The study analyzed 113 surveys administered to undergraduate pre-service teachers enrolled in teacher preparation technology courses. The results of this study indicated that participants own a high level of emotional intelligence and very low technology skills. The results also indicate that there is no significant relationship between emotional intelligence and technology skills among undergraduate pre-service teachers in a College of Education teacher preparation technology course at a Midwestern University.
