Each of the courses in the Technology Integration for K-12 Educators line provides applicable skills and information regarding the use and integration of technology in the classroom environment. From these courses, educators gain practical knowledge and materials they can actually take back to the classroom and put into use. All procedures and resources, including video examples, are provided for your convenience. Aries’ goal is to help educators make the most of their schools’ technology and improve the overall education of their students. These courses are aligned to the National Educational Technology Standards for Teachers established by the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) (http://www.iste.org). While primarily designed for K-12 teachers, corporate trainers who would like to incorporate more technology into training materials will also greatly benefit from these courses.

Discover some of the most effective technology integration ideas that will both incorporate and enhance K-12 curricula.
