Promoting Student Equity

 

Are you ready to level-up your instruction? Imagine a classroom where the instruction supported the individual learning styles and social emotional needs of all students. Odds are, every student has a different preferred learning style, which can make it difficult for even the most effective teacher.

Using technology as a vehicle to deliver content and further engage students in instruction, can transform learning beyond what we’ve previously thought possible. Implementing the use of digital tools, along with effective teaching strategies, empowers educators to refine learning processes, and prepares them to address academic barriers.  This in turn allows a more inclusive environment for all students. When educators are equipped with great strategies that promote equity across groups, it ensures that every learner has the opportunity to reach their maximum potential.

Participants in this course will analyze the importance of promoting student equity, identify barriers that hinder student growth and success, explore various tech tools that support and enhance individual learning needs, and develop tech-rich activities, that promote equity and self-awareness among students in content areas.

Here is the course outline:
