Technology in Physical Education
Technology has become an infusive and pervasive presence in most aspects of today's culture; at home, at work, in the classroom, and on the athletic field. Technology has provided teachers and coaches with new tools and has opened up whole worlds of new possibilities for teaching, learning, coaching and managing competitions. Using a project-based approach, and in collaboration with the instructor and other participants, students in this course will become familiar with both current and emerging technologies that may be useful in their teaching and/or coaching. Projects will be implemented to address both Common Core and National Educational Technology Standards.
This course is applicable towards the Physical Education Teaching Certificate.
