Technology Webinar

Tech Webinar

Digital technology enables educators to create rich, interactive teaching materials, highly personalized assessments, and collaborative learning experiences that improve classroom instruction and foster greater student engagement. Yet as more teachers move learning materials online, they often find that limitations to their district’s learning management system inhibit their ability to share content and tools with other educators, or to access relevant content that others have created.

How can educators, administrators, and technologists overcome this challenge and make better use of the collaborative benefits offered by digital technology?

Attend this webinar and learn how leading districts are using dynamic, global content-sharing networks to enhance teaching and learning in their schools and to maximize the opportunities offered by digital content. Gain deeper insight into:

  • The wide range of benefits of digital content, and how to align content to common core and individual state standards,
  • Strategies to improve content sharing, discovery, authoring, delivery, and copyright, and
  • A new cross-platform learning object repository that addresses digital content hurdles.

Guests:

Phill Miller, vice president, product strategy, Moodlerooms

Brent Mundy, product manager, Blackboard

Sarah Weston, curriculum director, Open High School of Utah

This webinar will be moderated by Brad Schleicher, marketing manager, Moodlerooms.
