ITEC 5233G - Foundations of Technology-Enabled Learning (3 Credit Hours)

Lecture Contact Hours: 3
This course introduces education majors to the effective use of instructional technology in supporting student-centered, technology-enabled learning. It adopts a systematic approach to selecting and utilizing various instructional technologies, focusing on creating integrated instructional products for online teaching and learning in P-12 environments. Students will explore core theoretical concepts and the history of the field and complete several technology-enhanced design projects tailored to their specific teaching disciplines. Graduate students will review and analyze peer-reviewed journal articles from leading journals in the field and share insights on research-based best practices in instructional technology and design. This aims to foster a shared vision for effectively integrating technology in teaching and learning. Additionally, they will conduct a comprehensive literature review on technology trends and issues in P-12 education and synthesize findings from that review for a final technology-integrated research project of personal interest. This project, like others, seeks to bridge theoretical knowledge with practical application by engaging students in using innovative educational technologies, including artificial intelligence, to address real-world problems and challenges in educational settings.
