Abstract	The purpose of this study was to better understand what optimal computer technology integration looks like in adult basic skills education (ABSE). One question guided the research: How is computer technology integration best conceptualized and measured? The study used the Delphi method to map the construct of computer technology integration and required qualitative analysis of expert opinion, gathered in a variety of ways. Based on that analysis, we conclude that optimal computer technology integration: (a) allows for seamless movement between technology- and nontechnology-based instructional formats, (b) is appropriate for adult literacy learners, (c) is facilitated by instructors, and (d) empowers learners.
