What I Learned
STEM- May 27, 2015 Board Meeting STEM.
Focusing on Math and real-world problems, technology integration will be seamless
Technology Integration
The first step in successful tech integration is recognizing the change that may need to happen inside of yourself and in your approach to teaching. When any teacher brings technology into the classroom, he or she will no longer be the center of attention.
Why should I integrate technology?
Save you time in the future!!
