 Sample Activities

Ed Psy 387 is a project-oriented course. The project can help you gain insight into the stages necessary in incorporating technology in classroom instruction: brainstorming, lesson planning, developing the technology, conducting classroom trials, evaluating it during and after its implementation. In many cases, students are choose a project that benefits their own teaching, and in some cases, students continue the same project across several CTER courses.
