Examples of Technology Usage in Education

Welcome to the Examples of Technology Usage in Education section of my portfolio.
 

This section includes sub-categories with artifacts that showcase what I have learned that pertain to the National Educational Technology Standards (NETS).

In completing each artifact found in this section, I learned how to utilize different technologies and technological mediums in order to expand classroom curriculum. Creating each artifact has helped to develop my skills in using technology by increasing understanding of technology systems, as well as using system applications in effective and productive ways.

The sub-categories include:

  • Gaming Technology
  • Digital Story
  • Audio Story
  • PDF Flier


Please take some time to view my artifacts that are attached throughout this section.
