Technology Integration
When using technology in teaching and learning, the most important thing to remember is to think about your desired learning outcomes first. What do you want your students to know or be able to do, and how will the technology help them get there? Be intentional with any tools that you use in teaching and learning, and take the time to get comfortable with the technologies you want to use in your teaching. Whether your classroom is face-to-face, hybrid, or online, you can utilize technologies to help your students engage with the material and each other, thereby improving their communication skills. They can also conduct and collaborate on research projects, share resources, and reflect on these experiences. Different types of technologies can enable and support all of these activities. These documents provide pedagogical guidance on using these instructional technologies in the classroom or online environment. They are not meant as documentation on the tools and applications. Campus service providers supporting these applications provide access to general support documentation.
