Converge Special
Report Update:
A whole new class of specialized learning
tools and technologies are appearing in classrooms today and are expected
to increase in the near future. This influx of new classroom technology
is driven by Common Core and other curriculum standards, student demand
for cutting-edge technology and need to produce a more globally
competitive workforce.
Specialty classroom technologies are also
being used in the area of workforce readiness. Campuses face challenges
both in trying to interest students in certain fields that are hiring as
well as to retain them through graduation. However, a whole new class of
specialized technology is emerging that not only can make up for campus’
limited resources, but can spark student engagement.
To equip students with the skills they need,
K-12 and Higher Education institutions are now employing intensive and
often specialized technologies such as:
- Math and science labs
- Gaming, animation and
media programming labs
- Art labs
- GIS/CAD labs
- Project-based learning
environments
- Virtual models and
simulation games
- Special needs programs
This webinar will
discuss how these technologies and others are being implemented to
deliver near real-world experiences to students in schools around the
country. Please join us!
