Description:

The Teaching with Technology Learning Journey guides instructors through a structured and flexible process for improving their use of technology in teaching. Participants begin with a foundation session that introduces core ideas about technology-enhanced learning, problem identification, and effective selection of digital tools. After completing this shared starting point, instructors choose elective sessions that align with their individual needs and interests. These electives explore a wide range of topics such as accessibility, student engagement, group work, course management, collaboration, grading, and learning analytics. Each participant builds a personalized path that supports their specific instructional goals. The learning journey concludes with a capstone experience where instructors apply what they have learned, reflect on their growth, and showcase a technology integration or intervention that strengthens teaching and learning in their courses.

By the end of the session Instructors will be able to,

Evaluate instructional needs and select appropriate technologies that support teaching, learning, engagement, accessibility, and course management goals.

Apply technology-enhanced teaching strategies and digital tools to design or improve learning experiences that support student success and instructional effectiveness.
