Project Integrate Technology Training
Project Integrate Technology Training offers K-12
classroom teachers a research-based model for the integration of
technology
into the
teaching/learning
process. During a series of three 2-day workshops, teachers learn
how, when, and where to incorporate technology tools and resources
into their curriculum as they produce a student-centered, project-based
unit for the classroom. Each round of training builds on the processes
and skills learned in the previous sessions.
Round 1: Technology and Curriculum Integration
In this two-day training, participants are introduced to a student-centered,
project-based approach for integrating technology into the curriculum.
After participating in a model lesson, teachers begin development
of a unit of practice to implement in their own classrooms. Time
is provided for teachers to create and present a curriculum-based
project using Internet resources and technology programs available
in the district. Closing activities examine the learning that took
place and the differences between learning in a constructivist
environment and a traditional environment.
Round 2: Internet and Curriculum Integration
In this two-day training, participants review the history of the
Internet, practice effective searching strategies, explore Internet
resources for the classroom, and develop web pages to support
their TEKS-based outcomes.
Round 3: Multimedia and Curriculum Integration
In this two-day training, participants develop a multimedia project
to accompany their unit of practice using tools available in
their district. Projects can incorporate video, sound, and advanced
graphics.
Cost: $3450 for 6 total days of training for
up to 20 participants
