According to Dr. June Main (2003) the question is, “How does technology change your teaching?” The emphasis needs to be focused on the transformation of teaching and learning. The focus is on researched, proven teaching strategies; technology is a tool.
It is only when teachers really plug into the ideas and strategies, try them in their classrooms and find that they work that it makes a difference. (Woodbridge, 2003, p.295)
• What teaching strategies used during this course compliment integration of technology?
This course would not be possible without technology. It is based from online work and allows teachers from all over the globe to share resources and ideas. The international school system must be founded on technology because of the diverse needs and backgrounds of students. Technology integration allows for a world of resources previously unavailable. It is fitting that this course would integrate technology in its methods and ideology.
• How do you personally define technology integration after completing this course?
Technology integration is the use of programming, devices, and digital resources as a tool for learning. Technology is a means to an end of understanding and communicating concepts in other subject areas. It deepens and colors instruction and allows for new lenses in which to understand our world of processes, of people, and of cultures.
