2013 National Title I Conference

I Have All of This Technology In My School - Now What???

Wednesday January 23, 2013 10:30am - 11:45am 

Presentation Description

Title I schools would benefit from the effective use of technology to differentiate and accelerate learning. School leaders (administrators, coaches, teacher leaders) should model best practices to support this goal. Too often there is a disconnect between technology tools (blogs, wikis, hardware solutions, etc.) and how they can be leveraged to produce the desired results in the classroom. Many times, technology solutions are purchased without a systematic plan for implementation. Participants will learn best practices that can be used to promote, support and model technology integration techniques to shape experiences that will advance teacher learning, creativity, and innovation. Participants will discover the importance of inspiring change that maximizes the use of digital-age resources to support instructional practices. At the conclusion of the session, participants will leave with digital resources and access to a learning community to support implementation.

Relevance for this Conference

Educating 21st century students requires educators to use resources that are relevant according to their learning style and the global community in which they live. Technology is a powerful tool that can be leveraged to reach this goal. Quality professional learning is the key to quality teaching.
