I wanted to take a little time out to talk about this pretty cool company that I’m consulting and working with– IT4Educators. IT4Educators is a site that provides educators with affordable online technology integration courses for college credit. In courses, learning is applied by creating classroom content:
Start with your own curriculum, and add Atomic Learning video clips on the most innovative technology tools available—from Twitter to blogs, Moodle® to SMART™ Notebook.
And since they use Moodle it’s..
Online and self-paced.
The interactive courses are created and delivered in Moodle by highly-trained practicing educators in the field to help you stay ahead of each new generation of digital learners.
And that’s also where I come in. I work with and maintain their Moodle install along with starting up their IT4Educators Blog which will consist of quality posts about tech integration. I’ll also be writing “Moodle Moments” for the blog every
so often which I will refer to in future Moodlerific blog posts.
I’m very excited to work with IT4Educators and I think it’s a great way for educators to get credits needed. I’m also excited about helping with their online web presence and getting their blog up and off the ground. The instructors at IT4Educators are some great tech leaders and will be providing useful resources and posts on the blog.
A recent piece of exciting news is that IT4Educators has joined forces with Atomic Learning
