Tech-Powered Teaching: Integrating Technology to Elevate Student Engagement

This workshop helps educators reimagine their teaching by integrating technology to create more engaging, student-centered learning experiences. Participants explore how to use collaborative learning apps, formative assessment tools, and research based models to evaluate and transform their instructional practices. With hands-on practice and facilitator-led discussions, teachers learn to troubleshoot and strategize ways to enhance classroom activities through purposeful tech integration. By the end, participants will have a roadmap for infusing lessons with innovation while maintaining instructional rigor.

• Limited or superficial use of technology that fails to truly enhance student learning.
  
  
• Lack of strategies to integrate technology in ways that foster engagement and higher-order thinking.
  
  
• Uncertainty about how to evaluate the effectiveness of technology integration in instruction.

1. Applying the SAMR Model for Tech Integration – Educators will learn how to assess their current use of technology and move from substitution toward modification and redefinition of learning tasks.
   
   
2. Using Collaborative Apps and Assessment Tools – Participants will practice with tools that encourage active learning, collaboration, and real-time formative feedback.
   
   
3. Designing Innovative, Tech-Infused Lessons – Teachers will leave with strategies and a structured roadmap for embedding technology into instruction to increase student engagement and achievement.
