Teaching with Technology

Teaching with Technology: A Guide for Pre-Service Educators introduces tools and strategies for integrating a variety of technologies into the classroom and shows students how to develop professional portfolios showcasing their use of these tools.


Designed for courses in educational technology, professional development, and curriculum and instruction for pre-service educators, the book outlines best practices for integrating technology into teaching, including the effective use of interactive electronic whiteboards, mobile devices, and multiple on-line Web 2.0 tools. This text is also intended to assist pre-service teachers to enhance their use of technology to conduct formative assessments, create a webpage, design an online newsletter, access resources for best practices in planning lessons, and more.



Students learn how to use technology to support and communicate learning, design engaging learning experiences, and enhance professional growth. The book also provides valuable information on technology standards, digital citizenship, web literacy, and copyright law.



Teaching with Technology helps students embrace the radical changes technology has brought to classrooms and prepares them to most easily and successfully incorporate diverse technologies into their own classroom teaching.
