Preliminary Flight Path
In order to incorporate more digital technology into my practice I must:
1. Be aware of what it “out there”
2. Evaluate each technology according to my pedagogical goals, and
3. Become competent and confident in using those that I choose.
I am hoping that theoretical frameworks covered in Module 1: Selecting and Using Technologies will give me a tool kit of criteria with which to critically evaluate potential technologies and find those that are in line with my personal pedagogy. It is my hope that Modules 2-5 (presentation tools, interaction and evaluation tools, social media, and multimedia) will expose me to (good) current technologies and that the assignments and activities in these modules will give me practice with some of them, thus fostering competence and confidence.
