How do we teach teachers to teach (with technology?)
If it were up to me… I think the best way to teach pre-service teachers to use technology is to give them the experience of learning with technology. The tech has to become a part of their problem-solving, self-learning arsenal. Sure, you will teach about technology too, but the emphasis for the college professor should be using the technology to learn.
- Lectures? Not so many.
- Learning blogs, yeah.
- Graphic organization tools? You betcha.
- Classes with PBL experiences? Certainly.
- Sharing and collaborating via digital channels? I hope!
- Writing? Not so much… unless its a prequel to a multimedia product.
Just some ideas.
