Today, most students are technology-savvy, having grown up in the computer age browsing the Internet, making friends through social networking, tweeting, playing electronic games, downloading music, and viewing or posting videos online. Research shows that students find school more satisfying and have greater academic success when they are taught in ways that are responsive to their interests, readiness levels, and learning profiles. In our courses from this subject area, educators will learn to incorporate technology tools and resources that engage students in their own learning, and to implement strategies for differentiating instruction based on their students' learning styles and multiple intelligences. Educators will come away with the skills needed to create technology-driven 21st-century classrooms that address the varying levels of their students' learning needs and actively engage students in their own learning.
