EDU 270 INSTRUCTIONAL TECHNOLOGY

This course presents strategies that enable a teacher to integrate technology into their educational environment to enhance their capabilities and productivity. Topics include multi-media projects, integrating technology into the curriculum, multiple software applications, telecommunications, electronic ethics, using the Internet for education purposes and electronic portfolios. It is important that when integrating technology into the classroom experience lessons be carefully planned; support active learning; and be infused with intentional, authentic, and collaborative learning opportunities. Using the constructive approach, technology must be woven into the curriculum in a way that engages students in the learning process. It is not just looking at a website or using the computer to word process.
