PD 612G - Digital Devices in the Classroom: BYOD

Integrating technology in the classroom is a cutting-edge specialization wherein teachers employ a variety of technologies in order to engage and motivate all learners. This allows teachers to prepare their students to thrive in a global society by breaking down barriers to information so students can become proficient consumers and producers of knowledge. This course offers teachers an opportunity to deeply explore the theories and methods of the purposeful integration of technology into the learning environment - especially in the area of Bring Your Own Device (BYOD). Teachers will explore technology-integration strategies for K-12 networked computing environments, examine justifications for choosing BYOD, and identify resources for developing personalized integration activities.
