This module provides students a look at three frameworks for considering the use of educational technology in the classroom - TPACK and SAMR- allowing them to find a model that is comfortable and works for their own philosophy of education as they see their future and current classrooms. Students develop their creative expressive skills as they generate infographics, and work on their communication and collaboration skills as they do this with others in a group. Additionally, the ISTE standards are introduced and explored for alignment with both frameworks.
Students begin their philosophy of educational technology in this module, which addresses the questions "What is Good Teaching and Learning?"
