7 Introductions Organize yourself with a “buddy” Introduce yourself to that person next to you Share your name, your teaching area of interest, what grade you want to teach, and what is your biggest technological fear. Introduce your buddy to the class

8 Class website & syllabus review Write down this website: http://people.uncw.edu/kubaskod / Turn to your computer and turn the monitor on Let’s review the website and the syllabus

9 A word about this class… What this class is… This class is a SURVEY course about how technology at large, with special emphasis on how we can use information/communication/computer technologies, can enhance teaching, learning and the profession of teaching.

10 A word about this class… Everyone of you are at a different level in terms of your skills and knowledge about computer use and teaching. Please be mindful that I make every effort to meet the standards as defined by the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction If you are especially good at computer use, then you need to focus more on the aspect of using technology as a teacher and you need to help those around you who are not so good with technology.

11 A word about this class… If you are especially poor at using technology, you will have to work outside of class and seek tutoring on your OWN TIME so that you can keep up with the class.

12 A word about this class… What this class is not…. This class will not “make you” a(n) Server administrator, Computer programmer, Graphics expert, Systems engineer, or a Hacker.

13 Foundations Portfolio and Internship What is this portfolio? See the two example portfolios Required By NCDPINCDPI Demonstrates Student and Teacher Competency Should be started now and added to as you go through your internship.

16 What the State Says You Must Know… In order to receive a license to teach in NC you must have documented evidence that you have met the: National Educational Technology Standards for Students and Teachers

17 Analysis Activity 1.Look at the technology goals and competencies for educators.

18 Computer Lab Rules No food or drink No saving files to these computers No changing of the settings

19 Why Technology? Increased Motivation Students are More Productive Slight rise in test scores One more tool to use

20 Technology and Basic Education 1.Do students need to be taught with technology in order to be successful in school? – in life? 2.Is it OK if you and I teach the same way we were instructed 5, 10, or even 100 years ago? To live in a changing world a different set of skills are needed.

21 This is where computers fit in Technology is a delivery system. A tool that can be used to improve or make learning more efficient.
