The purpose of the TIP 561 course is to introduce pre-service teacher candidates to the various forms of electronic and digital technology and to provide opportunities for engagement and reflection on the role these technology tools can play in the teaching/learning processes in the classroom. The students become skilled in some of the many digital tools used in today鈥檚 schools. In addition, students will be exposed to basic learning theory and will be assisted in determining appropriate applications of these theories and techniques in educational settings. This course is designed to use Danielson鈥檚 Domains of Professional Practice to meet the PDE certification and accreditation requirements. This course has been identified as a required course for many programs leading to initial certification to teach in the State of Pennsylvania. This course includes many projects that develop our candidates鈥� proficiencies with instructional technology and are aligned with the ISTE Standards for Teachers.
