About ITT Essentials
Are you ready to update your teaching toolkit? Whether you teach online, face-to-face, or on-site at a local school, this academy will explore new tools and teaching strategies for multiple learning environments. If you’re new to teaching with technology or if you’re the go-to person in your department for technology integration, there is something for you in this academy. We’ll have a particular emphasis on tools that support experiential learning. Please note that the final session will be in an Ed-Camp format so we can learn from each other.
Resources discussed include but are not limited to:
- Tools for Community Building
- Tools for Reflection
- Tools for Communication and Collaboration
ITT Academy sessions will take place 10 a.m.-1 p.m. on Feb. 24, March 17, March 31, and April 14
ITT academy tracks are limited to 10 participants with priority to faculty and programmatic diversity. Selected participants need to commit to attending all academy sessions in their selected track.
