Teaching with Technology
CU Learn is designed to focus on how to best integrate technology into pedagogy and course design. More than tutorials on how to use specific software, CU Learn looks at potential ways to use technology in a classroom setting.
Among the problems facing instructors using technology on their course design is knowing what tools are available, what they are used for and how to get the most out of the current technology.
The new CU Learn is designed to allow intructors to have a greater understanding of the technology they currently use, the strengths and weaknesses of a given application, as well as exposure to new technology and applications that might be more effective in pedagogy or course design.
