Course
Description: |
The
integration of electronic information resources into classroom applications is important
for long-term student success in K-12 and beyond. Students in this graduate class will
examine and evaluate the features, content and application of electronic resources
appropriate for K-12 classroom use. Age appropriate subject content area lessons will be
created for final projects that effectively integrate electronic information resources
into classroom experiences. Students will come away with lesson plans that can be
implemented in their classrooms during the fall of 2003.

This
is a one-hour graduate class. All of the class content (discussion questions, assignments,

person. |
