Using technology appropriately to enhance teaching can provide relevance and interactivity for learners. This interactive workshop, led by four different specialists in education and technology, will offer a practical introduction to effective teaching technologies and how and why to integrate them appropriately into your teaching. By reflecting on learning outcomes and decisions about the purpose and use of technology, participants will use our planner to thoughtfully integrate different technological tools into their teaching. Demonstrations of video and audio files, online repositories, e-cases, online learning objects, clickers, web design tools, and Articulate Presenter software will give participants many ideas for planning for technology-enhanced teaching. An annotated reference list and planner will be handed out during the workshop. Please bring to the session a brief lesson plan or topic in which to integrate technology.
