Educational Technology | The Word “Technology” Is in the Way: Thinking Beyond the Term
September 16, 2021 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
For centuries, technology tools have aided the learning process. How do we think beyond the term “technology” to leverage learner experiences? How do we recognize and link educational technology with tools like pen and paper or chalk and chalkboards? This webinar explores how educational technology can increase student persistence and retention.
Learning Outcomes:
- Participants identify various educational technology tools.
- Participants observe how educational technology tools enhance learning while identifying the link between educational tools.
- Participants understand how educational technology increases student persistence and retention and can produce robust outcomes during the middle of a global pandemic.
