Welcome to Tiger One, the online collection of K-12 technology resources that can be integrated into any classroom.

The Classroom Technology Integration Specialists (CTIS), Media Specialists (MS), and the entire tech team wish you a very happy new year, and want to remind you of a few resources, including Spring Tiger Tech University offerings.

Our team is dedicated to serving the staff, students, and families of Cuyahoga Falls City Schools. Besides reaching one of us directly with your preferred communication method, we have ongoing Office Hours daily to support you, and your students and their parents, as well as the Q&A Discussion Board for Online Instruction. You can find them both on the Homepage of Tiger One.

We also continually update and add to Tiger One for All, where you, as well as your students and families, can find technology troubleshooting guides, live help, and our technical support hotline.

Finally, below are the Spring 2021 TTU Offerings:

With our school's purchase of Edpuzzle Pro this fall, many teachers were eager to get started and learn more. Many of them successfully completed our Edpuzzle Digital PD Workshop, and more were interested in taking it in the Spring. So, it's back for round 2!

With this course, you will learn how to leverage Edpuzzle to foster student learning and improve your overall instructional pedagogy. Plus, by working through Edpuzzle’s trainings at your own pace, you can get free Contact Hours or register for Graduate Credit. Visit TTU for more information.

Disruptive classroom Technologies (Corwin, 2017) by Sonny Magana, educational researcher, is the focus of this twelve-week online book study. The book study focuses on the question: Have we developed, at considerable cost and effort, classrooms that are digitally rich but innovation poor?

This book offers a new framework to elevate instructional practices with technology and maximize student learning. The T3 Framework helps teachers categorize students’ learning as translational, transformational, or transcendent, sorting through the low-impact applications to reach high-impact usage of technologies. Visit TTU for more information.
