Integrating Technology Educator Academy (iTEA) provides face-to-face, hands-on experiences with creating lessons and unit plans using 21st century teaching tools. The iTEA trains educators to promote higher level achievement from students who are engaged in their learning experience. Building on the ideas of effective technology integration and student inquiry, this academy focuses on using technology to enhance higher-order thinking skills. Research shows that effective professional development resulting in lasting change must be sustained over time, with follow up and continuing support for participating teachers. Moreover, research also shows that at least 30% of the money spent on equipment should be spent on Professional Development for the users; otherwise, the equipment is not used to its fullest potential. |
