Tech Integration & Instruction

• Technology is ubiquitous, touching almost every part of our lives, our communities, our homes.
• Yet most schools lag far behind when it comes to integrating technology into classroom learning.
• Integrating technology into classroom instruction means more than teaching basic computer skills and software programs in a separate computer class.
• Effective tech integration must happen across the curriculum in ways that research shows deepen and enhance the learning process. (edu)

  "Curriculum integration with the use of technology involves the infusion of technology as a tool to enhance the learning in a content area or multidisciplinary setting... Effective integration of technology is achieved when students are able to select technology tools to help them obtain information in a timely manner, analyze and synthesize the information, and present it professionally. The technology should become an integral part of how the classroom functions — as accessible as all other classroom tools. The focus in each lesson or unit is the curriculum outcome, not the technology." (Wiki)
