MAIT 656 Transformational Technology and Strategic Leadership for the World of Tomorrow
Students in classrooms today have different expectations than previous generations. Students need to be prepared for a future that requires a different set of skills, and technology has to be assimilated. School districts are investing hundreds of thousands of dollars in technology in order to modernize classrooms and utilize every means available to advance student achievement. Classrooms preparing for the future must become innovative, interactive, and equipped with technology that offers numerous avenues for instructional methodologies. Technology can help provide an enriched environment that allows better learning and instruction. The first in a two-course sequence, this course is an exploration of technology planning and vision statements for current and future technology initiatives. Topics of emphasis include evaluation of hardware/software, budgets, infrastructure, and the means for implementation of emerging technologies.
