EDT 211- Designing Technology Based Learning Solutions
This course provides students with the opportunity to design and develop technology-based learning solutions for real-world instructional problems. Students will identify an instructional problem, collect data to assess relevant needs of an authentic population of learners and work collaboratively to create learning solutions for face-to-face, blended and/or online environments. Students will also become proficient in the operation of various pieces of hardware and software and develop skills for evaluating and integrating technology into the different learning environments.
This class has been an amazing experience from start to end. I was introduced to so many technologies that can be utilized in all grade levels and subjects. Design Tech brought out a lot of youthful passion towards science in the classroom. Constructing the technology enhanced learning activities (see example) helped me organize and construct lessons that follow state standards and kept me on track with integrating relevant technology that truly enhances a lesson. I believe I will continue to use this format in the future.
