Our goal is to purposefully and intentionally integrate technology so that the student learning experience is enhanced or transformed. While many of the digital learning tools listed below can create more student engagement (because they’re fun to play with!) – our goal is to have more authentic engagement, that is linked to learning outcomes.
Here are some questions to ask yourself as you begin planning:
- What do you want students to know or be able to do as a result of this learning experience?
- How could the [insert name of technology tool] help students gain that knowledge or develop those skills?
- What do you anticipate evidence of learning will look like when using the [insert name of technology tool]?
