Instructional Technology Tools
Welcome to EDIT710
Dear EDIT710 Students,
This is a 16-week, fully online course (15 modules). This course introduces a variety of technology tools for instruction. This course is for students who want to explore how to implement different instructional technologies into their teaching practice. Participants in this course will apply and also learn how to design a blended learning activity using the ASSURE Model.
To facilitate communication outside of the class, Moodle is used for homework submission, quizzes, and online communication. Also, your Coastal E-mail will be used for any other correspondence outside Moodle. It is your responsibility to check your account frequently for course announcements. Besides, do not send the instructor E-mail questions unless they are personal or confidential in nature; instead, please post your questions to the General Discussion forum on Moodle so the entire class can benefit from the answers. This is especially helpful for technical troubleshooting.
Requirements

- Engage in positive and meaningful dialog with classmates concerning the course subject matter

Delivery
This course has a modular structure. Each module is individually assessed, but successive modules build on previous information.

Please be advised that it is your responsibility to log in to your online course frequently for course announcements.
