Proposal
and Outline
David Navis EdTech 561 – Online
Reasearch has proven
that meaningful integration of technology into the curriculum will result in
higher test scores. This article will look at four areas of technology use in
school curriculums. It will research the answers to the following questions:
- What does meaningful technology look like?
- What is the role of the curriculum?
- What is the role of the textbook?
- What role does a teacher play?
Blended within the article will be a reference to a model for integration. This model has been tried and used my the University of Northern Iowa and University of Wisconsin - Stout. It was found to be a successful formula for curriculum development.
