Has your district integrated Chromebooks, Laptops, iPads and Mobile devices? Is more work being done online? Is your school implementing 1:1?
Schools are investing in new technology to help improve and enhance student achievement. With the Common Core standards, educators need to ensure that students can *demonstrate* what they know, and not just say they know it. When implemented properly, these technologies can produce significant gains by boosting engagement with interactive learning especially with at-risk students.
That’s why [Fitchburg State ](http://fitchburgstate.edu/gce)offers courses just for teachers. We help you figure ways to best implement and use technology in your classroom to help your students explore and create.
Check out this online/hybrid course that we're offering this fall.
