EDUO 9152: Using Technology to Support Authentic Learning
Education lacks a means to measure if and how the use of digital tools is impacting authentic learning.Learn how specific technology frameworks can provide these means by measuring if digitally supported learning is occurring beyond observable student engagement. Discover how these frameworks support authentic learning. Assess and create measurable technology supported lessons that utilize effective instructional strategies. Evaluate technology tools using the frameworks. Move beyond digital tools that simply engage students to effectively using specific tools within a planned scenario whose primary goal is supporting authentic learning.
