Overview
Sometimes technology seems like an add on – something we do at the end of a unit to make sure that we’re “using tech” – but actually designing your units to authentically embed technology from the very first lesson can not only make teaching the unit easier for you, but it can also make the experience even more engaging and empowering for your students.
In this session, we’ll explore how to make any unit technology rich in just 5 steps – plus a natural format to structure student projects so they are scaffolded for success! Once you try designing technology rich learning like this, you’ll never go back!
