On Saturday, January 24, 2004, KLRN and the University of the Incarnate Word hosted the Institute for Connecting Teachers and Technology (ICTT).
The weather started out gloomy, but the forecast inside was bright and sunny with over 140 teachers, media specialists, and administrators learning about the latest in technology in the classroom.
All participants received instruction delivered by local "master teachers" on how to better use technology in their classrooms. Each session was tailored according to grade level and subject for effectiveness.
Overview
ICTT is designed to:
Integrate technology into classroom instruction Utilize media as an effective teaching tool Participate in teacher-created lessons that are “hands-on” and technologically engaging Learn about new products that are sure to inspire students
During the conference master teachers from areas school districts conduct workshops using prime-time instructional programming and web-based technology that explains, motivates, reinforces, and addresses the different learning styles of students. The Institute also offers sessions that spotlight effective cutting-edge technology and strategies.
Thanks to all of our 2004 participants!
