CI 610 Technology in Teacher Education

The College of Education at Iowa State University has launched a mentoring program and part of it has contributed to the creation of a graduate course entitled " Technology in Teacher Education". It is a graduate course designed for graduate students in Instructional Technology.
Instructor

Dr. Ann Thompson

Students registered in the course are expected to work with faculty members to help them better acquire the necessary skills to effectively integrate technology into course design. The faculty members are volunteer participants with technology backgrounds ranging from beginners to advanced users. Most of the time, more than one faculty member with similar technology backgrounds and needs are assigned to one graduate student with a particular specialization. The faculty member works with a mentor on technology applications related to the faculty member's teaching interest.

The seminar course includes readings and discussions on issues in technology in teacher education and a field component. For the field component, the students are asked to mentor a teacher education faculty member for 1 hour each week during the semester. In the seminar class, discussion centers on both current readings and the mentoring experiences of each of the students.
