Technology Integration Collaborative Lesson Plans
Thanks to a district staff development grant, classroom teachers, technology teachers, and media specialists were given the opportunity to collaborate in the creation of quality technology integration lessons to be used in the elementary classroom, computer labs, and media center. Each lesson was developed to support the classroom curriculum and includes a description of the lesson activities in each instructional setting.
