Lightning in a Bottle

Indiana University has put together an impressive online learning program focused on technology integration. The Learning to Teach with Technology Studio has several dozen 1-credit courses that cover a variety of curriculum-specific topics. What I like about the structure of the courses is that they are built around essential teaching questions, such as:

• Scientific Graphs and Charts: How can my students use technology to organize and present their inquiry data?

• Using Internet-based Simulations to Explore Probability: How can I create a probability lesson that incorporates Internet-based simulations?
• Storytelling as Communication: How can I use technology to help my students improve writing and presentation skills?
  

It’s nice to see courses that don’t just focus on technology skills, but instead provides specific direction on effective strategies with students.

Registration is available to individuals, or a school/district can order site-based subscriptions.
