Technology Integration Plan (Final Project)

Submission Deadline: Dec 15th by 11:59pm EST 
Essential ReadingRethinking Technology in Schools (Chapter 5) & 4 Steps to Standards Integration [PDF download] 

This final project is a culminating activity that builds on the skills you have developed through all of the previous interactivities in this module. It asks you to integrate the technological knowledge and pedagogical skills you have developed this semester across your co-requisite courses. You will work with a lesson plan you have already worked with (for example, in your Inclusion module or English Language Learners module or any other context). DO NOT CREATE A NEW LESSON PLAN FOR THIS PROJECT. Beyond the adaptations that you already made to that lesson plan, your task now is to infuse technology in ways that are not just supportive, but are also transformative. In other words, you're not simply "adding on" technology, but you are enriching and transforming the ways in which students learn (and you teach) through the careful selection and intentional uses of specific technologies.
