Purposes of School Visit & Internview
① Investigate Technology Integration
Each student must observe the facilities and technology infrastructure school wide and in the classrooms. If possible, each student observes how technology is implemented in a classroom teaching.
② Find Answers to Your Questions
Prior to the school visit, each student must come up with five instructional technology questions that he/she wants to investigate at the selected school. Not only must he/she observe how things are, the student also must actively look for answers to his/her questions.
③ Identify Problem Areas
While the student observes the facilities and interviews the teacher, he/she must try to identify potential problems with the ways technology is integrated in school or used by the teacher. If no obvious problems are found, the student still must identify the areas that can be enhanced through different applications of instructional technology. This is a prerequisite for the proceeding Teaching Innovation project.
Booth Presentations
We use a booth presentation format, meaning that each student sets up their booth for their presentation, and that multiple people present simultaneously. It is similar to the booth presentations at a conference.
