Meeting Pattern

This course will be presented online. It will include four online discussions which will occur on Wednesday nights and presentations via BB collaborate. 

Description

Schools across the United States are increasingly encouraging teachers to incorporate technology into their classrooms, with the aim of creating 21st century citizens. This course will require participants to consider the role that technology plays in their life, as well as the role that it plays in their students’ lives. Through personal reflection, participants will identify the ways in which technology enhances their lives, as well as the ways that it adds unnecessary challenges. Course participants will develop an action plan for mindful use of technology in their classrooms, as well in their personal lives.
