The scope and sequence of instruction would follow through
on each of the stages outlined below. A detailed
syllabus for each class session is provided in this site. The syllabus
will also be flexible to allow students to revisit the various phases
depending on their level of mastery in each area. The syllabus also
must allow the student time to work with the various tools and to explore
the integration of the tools into the development of curriculum and
classroom instruction. The professor would also model the use of each
stage and demonstrate the technology tools within the online instruction.
The instructional setting would need to be in a classroom or in a home
with access to computers (1 per student), the necessary computer software
programs and Internet access.
