Education Technology Professional Learning Opportunities
High quality, ongoing, and sustained professional development is critical to the successful integration of technology in the classroom. In support of this effort, the Education Technology section provides face-to-face and online learning opportunities.
2021-22 School Year Monthly OKEdTech Meetings
In order to provide an opportunity for professional development and collaborative discussions related to the use of digital educational tools and educational technology integration, there will be monthly education technology meetings. These meetings will occur on the 4th Tuesday of each month, from 3:30-4:30. All sessions will be recorded and information shared during these meetings will be posted here for those who are unable to attend. You must register to attend in order to receive the join information for these Zoom sessions. You will only need to register one time, as the Zoom information will be the same for all future sessions.
