Digital Tool Evaluation Criteria
To evaluate that your selected digital tool is the right fit for your lesson plan, test the tool under the Triple E Framework. Ask yourself how your tool helps to extend, ehance, or engage learning.
The Triple E framework acknowledges that technology is merely a tool that enhances learning. Therefore technology should not be implemented into education for the sheer reason of "keeping up with technology" but rather the technology should be purposeful, motivating, promotes deep learning, and connects the students to everyday experiences. Comparing your selected tool to this criteria can help determine if the technology is a good fit for your educational session.
