Licensure - Teaching With Technology

Technology is naturally a part of our WELS congregations and classrooms. How are you prepared students for that ever-changing environment? What are your students prepared to do? What tools do you need to know how to use? How do you manage a classroom of Chromebooks, iPads, or a host of other technological tools? Those questions and many others will be answered and demonstrated in this sectional.
