No Section V Use of Technology Provide the following information about the use of technology in your teacher preparation program. Please note that choosing 'yes' indicates that your teacher preparation program would be able to provide evidence upon request. Does your program prepare teachers to: - integrate technology effectively into curricula and instruction Yes - use technology effectively to collect data to improve teaching and learning Yes - use technology effectively to manage data to improve teaching and learning Yes - use technology effectively to analyze data to improve teaching and learning Yes Provide a description of the evidence that your program uses to show that it prepares teachers to integrate technology effectively into curricula and instruction, and to use technology effectively to collect, manage, and analyze data in order to improve teaching and learning for the purpose of increasing student academic achievement. Include a description of the evidence your program uses to show that it prepares teachers to use the principles of universal design for learning, as applicable. Include planning activities and a timeline if any of the four elements listed above are not currently in place. Every student in the Teacher Education program must complete EDU 203 Microcomputer and Media in the Classroom course at the beginning of their program. Students begin their e-Portfolio in this course (using LiveText) and learn a variety of instructional skills, techniques and resources for integrating technology into their teaching and learning processes. Students and faculty are expected to continue engaging in instructional technology in accordance with Kentucky Teacher Standards, ISTE Standards for Teachers and Students, NCATE and Content Area Standards. Through each course, early field experience ===== PAGE 24 ===== and student teaching or Practicum (for graduate students), students will enter work that will demonstrate their achievement of competencies as they continue to engage with their e-Portfolio. The EDU 203 course equips students with skills of effective technology usage and exposes student to numerous resources in their discipline area. They also learn how to use commercial materials such as grade eBooks and how to design their own using Excel and Access. Student learn how to analyze manage, collect and analyze data and make adjustments to instructions based on results. They also continue this experience through various courses in the curriculum. They learn how to develop charts and graphs and to interpret and articulate their meanings in the modification of instructional plans and processes. We clearly identify some elements of the principles of universal design that are currently being demonstrated in our program. However, we have not completed our efforts to formally engage our student in preparation for utilizing the principles of universal design. The Unit recently established a partnership with Discovery Education and will provide professional development for faculty, staff, students, graduates, and public school personnel in the use of technology to deliver common core content and for assessment. The most recent event was held in February 2012 entitled "Literacy Assessment". ## Section VI Teacher Training Provide the following information about your teacher preparation program.
