Why Integrate Technology into your curriculum?
Students are engaged in their learning and integrating technology helps students become creators and critics instead of just consumers. It is also a necessity of today's students to have 21st century skills.
These 21st century skills include:
Personal & social responsibility
Planning, critical thinking, reasoning & creativity
Strong communication skills, both interpersonal & presentation needs.
Cross-cultural understanding
Visualizing & decision making
Know how & when to use technology & choosing the most appropriate tool for the task
For more information about 21st century skills check out the Partnership for 21st Century Skills website.
