Technology in the 21st Century Classroom (5 Hours)

Technology in the 21st Century Classroom (5 Hours)

Knowing how a tool works is the easy part. The harder question is what it is for, and that is the question this course asks about every technology that comes into a classroom. Teachers learn what the ISTE Standards for Educators expect, what conditions have to be in place for technology to support learning, and how to choose tools that serve the curriculum instead of competing with it.

Lessons cover a tool set that now includes blogs, online meetings, podcasts, video, office tools, virtual field trips, and artificial intelligence, the skills students need to create, connect, communicate, collaborate, and think critically, and the digital literacies and ethical habits behind a healthy digital footprint.

Online self-study PD courses help teachers complete continuing education requirements.

  • I have taught for many years and have lacked confidence with incorporating technology into my classroom. This course has given me some courage; I believe that I now may see the way to start!

  • I am very pleased with the content and format of all the PLB courses I have taken thus far. One of the most helpful aspects of this website is that one is able to view which courses are aligned with each state's requirements. Great work! Will continue to take more courses on PLB! Also, love receiving emails regarding special pricing.

  • This course was more useful than I thought it would be during the introduction. Having used technology in my classroom for the past 20 years, I was somewhat insulted by the first section of the course. I do not need convincing that technology is an essential tool to enrich student learning opportunities. Most of the content has already been used in my classroom, however, there were some areas that I have not done much with, and this interested me. I think that additional courses offered on specific topics would greatly enhance professional development. The most helpful part of the course were the links offered.

  • This online course was so full of information. I was a little overwhelmed with it at first. I am not very informative about all the technology choices that are out there to use in the classroom. Now, all I keep thinking about is how am I going to learn them and use them =)

  • This course motivates me to have a mindset of the 21st century teacher.

  • I have already highly recommended PLB to my colleges. I was truly pleased with the content, the pace and the links provided in my Technology course. This was my first experience taking an online course and I must say that PLB made it painless. Thanks to this course I have learned to make technology an essential part of my teaching. I was integrating technology, but now I have gained at better understanding of what it means to effectively use technology to facilitate learning. The links and videos that were part of the course are extremely useful and already part of my Digo account. Thanks for making professional development relevant, easy, practical and affordable! PLB is simply the BEST! Thankfully, Andrea

  • This is my fifth course through PLB and by far the most useful; although, each course was excellent. As a stay at home mom/ professional teacher on hold, it is imperative that I keep up on technology to remain relevant once I re-enter the workforce. I feel excited instead of anxious in regards to what has changed in regards to technology since I left teaching in 2006. I'd love to see more!
