Teacher Tech Training
Teacher Tech Training (T3) grew out of a workshop that Lisi ran for elementary teachers who were interested learning more about using technology with their students. She saw there was a need for more training that focused on practical uses of available technology – for many teachers, available often meant free tools. She developed an online mini course about using free web 2.0 tools that was well received and decided to expand it to a full course based on the feedback she received.
The free mini course will always remain free for those who want self paced training, and hopefully more free mini courses will be developed as the site grows. In addition, T3 will offer a series of facilitated, instructor-led courses on practical topics such as Digital Storytelling, Project Based Learning, Video in the Classroom, and others. A frequent comment is that professional development often leaves teachers wondering how to implement what they’ve learned. The facilitated courses will therefore provide learners with the opportunity to practice their skills before using them with students and to receive feedback and help.
