CTE Indy Workshops on Visual and Digital Literacy
In these workshops, teachers will learn about visual
and digital literacies and gain hands-on experience
with emerging technologies for teaching and learning,
including:
- Web 2.0 tools like podcasts, blogs, Facebook and wikis
- Digital video for reflection, storytelling, and analysis
- Interactive technologies like iPhones, clickers, and SmartBoards
- Visual learning tools like Inspiration
The workshops and graduate credit option are intended for the following audiences:
- Classroom teachers at the elementary or secondary levels
- Library media specialists
- Parents
- School and district technology coordinators
- School and district curriculum specialists
- Graduate students in education-related fields
The four workshops will be conducted on Saturday mornings at the Ball State Indianapolis Center, located in the heart of downtown Indianapolis with convenient parking available next door at the Circle Center Mall:
- January 16, 9 AM to 1 PM
- February 6, 9 AM to 1 PM
- March 20, 9 AM to 1 PM
- April 24, 9 AM to 1 PM
Educators may register for as many workshops as desired, but those in the graduate credit option must attend at least three workshops and complete additional online assignments and activities. In the graduate credit option, educators will apply new competencies to the design of a curricular unit or project that incorporates digital media and includes a performance assessment that examines student learning. CRUs are available for the four workshops for educators not interested in graduate credit.
