Step 1 LEARN When used well, technology can make your teaching -- and students' learning -- more engaging, efficient, and effective. But do you have to scrap your tried-and-true lesson plans and start over? Not at all!

Step 1 LEARN How to Design Tech Rich Lessons Walk through this four-step lesson planning process, including: 1)envisioning and setting your goals, 2)engaging students and modeling instruction, 3)supporting independent practice and assessing students, and 4)reflecting on the lesson and evaluating your practice.

Step 1 LEARN Rethinking Lesson Activities The SAMR model, developed by Dr. Ruben Puentedura, helps teachers reflect on how they’re integrating technology. Is tech being used to substitute, augment, modify, or redefine lesson activities? Watch the following video and check out resources to learn more.
