Purpose:
Determine how technology integration can create literate local and global citizens.
The purpose of synthesizing and researching information listed on this site is to help myself and other teachers see the importance of technology integration across the content areas. Using technology in the classroom can not only increase literacy skills, but can also facilitate local and global citizenship. Research and data was collected throughout my graduate studies at North Carolina State University. Specific courses in which research used for this study are: ECI 508-Teachers as Leaders, ECI 546-New Literacies and Media, ECI 524-Theory and Research in Global Learning, and ECI 523-Teacher as Researcher.
The culminating project of my graduate coursework is this very Weebly designed to display student work that directly correlates to the question I entered this graduate program with. I also hope for this website to educate other teachers and encourage them to try incorporating more technology in their classroom and create active local and global citizens.
