Technology Integration

Our instructional technology integration services aim to empower districts to navigate the evolving landscape of educational technology and leverage the power of technology for effective teaching and learning!

Our services include but are not limited to:

• Providing technology integration services for
  • Administrators
  • Teachers
  • Students
  • Support Staff
  • Districts, Schools, and Communities
• Unleash your creativity with our STEM and MakerSpace programs! We offer a wide range of equipment to enrich your classroom or school with the tools needed to bring innovative projects to life. Browse our available equipment using the link below – all you need is a curious mind and a passion for making! Check out our local REMC Center equipment for the duration of your STEM or Maker project, from a single day to several weeks. If you’re new to STEM or MakerSpaces or need a refresher, don’t hesitate to request instructional support. Keep in mind that some kits may require additional materials, such as consumables or mobile devices.

We offer “modeled technology integration lessons.” We take the guesswork out for teachers by demonstrating effective tech use in the classroom alongside them.

Here’s how it works:

• We collaborate with teachers to identify a specific technology skill they want to incorporate, like coding, robotics, digital storytelling, or anything in between! Some Collaborative Lesson Development  Projects we’ve done successfully include:
  • Intergenerational Project,
  • Global Collaboration Projects, and
  • Student-Led STEM Fair
• We then step into the classroom and co-teach a lesson with the teacher. We’ll model best practices for integrating the technology while delivering engaging instruction to students. Some samples of these include:
  • STEAM Curriculum through Coding, robotics, and maker initiatives
  • Digital storytelling projects.

We support schools through:

• In-Class Collaboration
• Professional Learning
• Technology Efficiency

In-Class Collaboration

We offer “modeled technology integration lessons”. We take the guesswork out for teachers by demonstrating effective tech use in the classroom alongside them.

Here’s how it works:

• We collaborate with teachers to identify a specific technology skill they want to incorporate, like coding, robotics, digital storytelling, or anything in between! Some Collaborative Lesson Development  Projects we’ve done successfully include:

  • STEAM Curriculum through Coding, robotics, and maker initiatives
  • Digital storytelling projects.

Teachers gain firsthand experience – they see the technology in action, observe student interaction, and get all their questions answered. This strategy increases teacher confidence and reduces the learning curve.

Professional Learning for Staff

Schools can request our services to facilitate professional learning sessions on topics related to educational technology advancements and integration.  These sessions can customized to address the needs of educators, administrators, school building support staff, whole staff, small groups (grade level, department, etc.), or individuals. Some topics requested in the past include:

• Technology Efficiency (Desktop publishing, communication, collaboration, and organization)
• Skill Building (Tool specific tech skills development such as Canva, Google tools, formative assessment tools, online resources and tools)

In addition to our services, we can direct teachers to professional development opportunities available to them:

• REMC Professional Learning offers two options:
  REMC Courses: are virtual, instructor-led, offered in a three week window, and take approximately 10 hours to complete.  At least 8 different ones from our catalog of over 50 are offered each month.
  REMC Workshops: encompass all other professional learning opportunities and may be virtual, blended or in person and vary in length. 
• EduPaths – EduPaths offers courses that cover a wide range of topics and align to the professional learning needs many of our districts are working to integrate into their systems.
