Technology has become a part
of everyday life, in and out of the
classroom. You possibly came to college
with lots of experience with
technology, but it may have been
primarily in the areas of personal
email, entertainment, and games. This
site focuses on practical applications
of technology in the classroom.
Teachers of all ages and experience
levels must become increasingly adept
at using technology as a teaching and
learning tool. On this site you will
find testimonials from teachers and
students illustrating how technology
has enhanced the learning process. You
will also find numerous links related
to using technology in the classroom.
Topics covered range from creating
rubrics to copyright issues to teacher
resources. Another major component of
the site is an extensive list of
modules that have already been created
and implemented in the classroom. In
addition, there are many scenarios you
can use to help you begin to design
your own teaching modules.
As you continue through your teacher
preparation program, you will be
designing and implementing instruction
that encompasses many technology areas.
This site is a resource to help you as
you begin collecting those items for
your portfolios — be they
personal, professional, or
educational.
