This five week blended learning course will begin on September 21 with a face-to-face session. During this session we will explore a variety of 21st Century free on-line tools. Participants will receive instruction on the use of StudyWiz Spark, a content management tool that will be used for the next five weeks to explore characteristic and benefits of Project-Based Learning. During the next five weeks participants will complete the five modules of the Intel Project Based Learning, turning in assignments and participating in online discussions. Participants will create a project-based lesson which includes 21st Century Tools. Participants will come together again on Saturday October 22 to share and critique their lessons.
The $600 fee includes two graduate credits from Viterbo University. University credit will be awarded based on the expectation that you attend all days required and complete all assignments
