This week, we will explore how technology can help us as teachers and leaders. Technology can be the vehicle for transformative learning. It can serve as the platform for delivering content and open up opportunities for learners to research and practice in different and diverse settings. For our discussion this week, please select one of the following:
Find an application or a learning tool that helps in learning complex topics. This can be a mobile phone app or some other technology that can assist learning. Share the link to the application and provide an assessment of the following:
How does the application of technology help with learning?
How does the application address issues of diversity and inclusion?
Diversity and inclusion can also be enhanced through the use of technology. There is a lot packed into that sentence. Find a resource that supports or enhances diversity and inclusion through the use of technology. Share the resource and discuss the following:
Is the resource specifically focused on diversity and inclusion, or is it for another use?
Are there obstacles associated with applying this resource in educational settings?
