The Educational Resources Center is sponsoring a new set of workshops this year, the Educational Technology Training Program. Coordinated and presented by Dr. Mahmud Shihab, the program provides 12 sessions throughout the year that offer training on skills and strategies needed for integrating and managing technology in the 21st century classroom. Three of the sessions, attended by participants from public and private schools as well as teachers and administrators from IC have taken place. During the sessions, Dr. Shihab helped participants create blogs, wikis, and podcasts for their classes, learn how to create and edit graphics, audio and video files and then embed them in multimedia projects and electronic portfolios. In the last session, participants explored modern teaching methodologies using educational software, interactive hardware and online resources. It is evident from their comments that participants were enjoying the sessions and learning a lot. “Interesting how you are flexible in addressing everyone’s needs,” commented one participant.
More workshop sessions from this program are planned throughout January and February. Those interested in attending the workshop sessions can contact the ERC to register.
