Technology Integration Skills Courses
 
IntegrateOnline 101

Recognizing the need for anytime, anywhere professional development, IntegrateOnline 101 offers an easy to use program incorporating multimedia, narration, visual demonstrations, and interactive hands-on projects to convey an in-depth understanding of how to use technology as a seamless part of the classroom teaching and learning experience. With focused, relevant coursework targeted specifically to individual needs, teachers will immerse themselves in the roles computers and multimedia technology play in the classroom.

The IntegrateOnline 101 series includes seven courses that can be taken as individual modules or combined as an abbreviated "Express" course. Teachers learn by engaging in real interaction; by practicing actual software concepts and skills, not simply viewing movement or text on screen. Each course includes a pre- and post-assessment that creates a custom learning path for each participant. Courses are self-paced — teachers learn at their own pace and in their own style, and progress reports can be instantly generated online. Teachers can print out curriculum integration ideas and lesson plans to use in their classroom immediately. Teachers can take IntegrateOnline 101 anytime, anywhere, with no lost classroom time.

Incorporating multimedia, narration, visual demonstrations, and interactive hands-on projects, teachers acquire the ability to work with mail merge in word processing, more advanced features for configuring databases and spreadsheets, and the more powerful linking aspects of presentation graphics. They then develop a lesson plan and/or thematic unit incorporating technology with integrated curriculum in more dynamic ways to support classroom learning.

The IntegrateOnline 201 series includes five courses that can be taken as individual modules. Teachers learn by engaging in real interaction; by practicing actual software concepts and skills, not simply viewing movement or text on screen.
