*Suggested Activity: Have small groups research one of the technologies and do a “Seven things you need to know about...” fact sheet to share/document with the larger group.

Technology becomes critical in the blended course. Regardless of how you choose to use it, careful consideration should be given to the benefit, instructional or non-instructional purpose, and contribution to the classroom, blended, or online component.  In this session, you will be given activity options based on your needs and interests such as technology tour, technology consultation, and mapping and aligning course objectives, activities and assignments with technology.
