Teachers Train From Their Beach Chairs with Teaching and Technology eCourse

Teachers learn how to integrate technology into their lessons on their time.

WASHINGTON, DC., June 24, 2013 – Former Vice Consul of Education with the U.S. State Department Kimberly Williams launched an online course for teachers who want to teach with technology. This program shows educators how to create custom multimedia products for their classrooms and ecourses on their ipad or smart phone, for just $7.

This course includes lessons on screencasting, movie making, website development and 21^st century presentations. The program also teaches participants where to locate professional images and how to expand their career options with the creation of an online portfolio. Williams takes a practical approach to the content development process by teaching educators how to implement evidence-based practices in their lessons through technologies many students and teachers already have access to.

“This program addresses a common challenge for today’s teachers in that many students have access to technology but a majority of teachers say they need training to better integrate technology into classroom instruction in a meaningful way. This course helps them acquire new skills that encourage complex communication, higher order thinking, and subject mastery even with older, slower computers,” Williams explains. “This program is not text-book driven but interactive and project-based and educators will walk away with products for their students by the end of the course.”
