Technology Integration, Ed.S.

Technology Integration (33 hours)

Today’s students have never lived in a world without the internet. For them, there is no divide between “technology” and their daily lives. Educators must be prepared to utilize this technology as a tool for learning. Through our Education Specialist degree in Technology Integration, you’ll discover ways to ensure students are ready for life and work in the vast and ever-changing digital age. The 33 credit hours include 15 hours of a unique blend of technology with advanced education course work and 18 hours of instructional technology course work. Each course in the program integrates technology as a teaching and learning tool. Educational technology is both a tool and a game changer. Given the impact technology can have on transforming the entire education system, our goal is to show you how to interact with students through technology to facilitate greater learning, as well as provide you with the skills necessary for teaching students how technology can and will change their lives.
