Advanced Approaches to Using Technology In the Classroom

Catalog description

This course builds on EDU-554 "Computers in Education" by extending the uses of computer technology to additional instructional and classroom management purposes. Teachers will be assisted in moving to more transforming uses of technology (as opposed to literacy uses, a term used by Porter, http://www.bjpconsulting.com/spectrum.html). This course will provide participants with more advanced methods for integrating technology into the learning process. Tools will also be explored that would save teachers time and help organize their craft.
