In Ed Tech Cohort we are learning how to use #SMART technology and document cameras. Our instructor, Mr. Kyle Tuck teaching us Smart notebook training program levels 1 & 2. As part of the Ed Tech Cohort, teacher candidates are provided with intensive hands-on training on the use of a variety of instructional technologies, including but not limited to SMART boards, LCD projectors, document cameras, Livescribe pens, interactive classroom clickers, Google Docs, iPads, YouTube and other multimedia resources.
In addition to developing our technical competencies, cohort participants receive instruction in pedagogical approaches that use technology to enhance teaching and learning, technical curriculum design and leadership theory so that they may become a future educational technology leader.
This particular day focused on document camera usage, extremely beneficial for visual/auditorial learners and differentiating instruction. Having the option to use these resources not only changes the way we can deliver an inclusive inquiry based classroom but how this information can be received in a variety of ways.
