Description

This is the home for courses that will introduce educators to four pedagogical frameworks that integrate content with technology: Bloom’s Revised Taxonomy, Depth of Knowledge, T3, and TPACK.  The approaches, although different, provide educators with best practices that support and sustain the use of technology in the classroom. 

This collection allows you to develop your knowledge and skills in one approach, two or all four depending on your interests and needs. Only interested in Bloom’s? Use the Modules link in the left sidebar to access that module. Want to learn about Depth of Knowledge now and TPACK later? Great! Return back to this Pedagogies collection when you are ready, no need to enroll again. For each individual module you complete, you will earn an open badge that indicates you have demonstrated skills in the area you studied.

This collection provides you with "why" each approach supports sound pedagogy in your learning environment, opportunities to explore the strategies and associated technology tools, and a chance to demonstrate your competency using different applications of your choice.

If you choose to complete all four frameworks you have an opportunity to delve deeper into classroom implementation. The implementation module is required to earn the Using Technology-rich Pedagogies to Inspire Learning micro-credential and apply for university credit.
