Uncovering and Cultivating Instructional Technologies for K-12 Schools
Course #: INSDSG 624
Description:
In this course, participants will examine technology as a tool and barrier in the education system. We will focus on the ISTE, International Society for Technology in Education, Standards for Teachers and Students and DESE’s Curriculum Framework for Digital Literacy and Computer Science to guide understanding of digital citizenship, computational thinking, and educational technology policies and best practices. We will discuss criteria and practice strategies for effective use of technology in the classroom with the aim of changing the way teachers teach and students learn. Students will explore pedagogical and ethical issues raised by the use of computers in the classroom, such as digital divide and digital equity. Ultimately, this course is designed like a digital playground, where students explore creative ways to facilitate learning across all content areas for K-12.
