Project Title: Turning Teacher-Candidates to Inquiry: Improving Preparation of Future K-12 Teachers in Mathematics and Science through Active Technology Engagement
Project Summary: The project aims at enhancing the preparation of future K-12 mathematics and science teachers through the active use of modern technologies, such as electronic response systems (clickers) and SMART Boards. We have created much needed opportunities for teacher-candidates to: (1) design and evaluate educational materials for technology-enhanced teaching; (2) discover and devise strategies for integrating technology to promote inquiry-based teaching; (3) become the next generation of leaders in the technology-enhanced mathematics and science inquiry-based education.
