Description
In this time of rapid change, school and district leaders are more important than ever. In the role of educational administrator, it is necessary to recognize the potential and necessity of technology. Further, it is critical that administrators recognize their dual role of instruction and technology leaders. The ISTE Standards for Administrators frames the role of the administrator in supporting digital age learning, creating technology-rich learning environments and leading the transformation of the educational landscape. Administrators must have competency and comfort in a wide array of technologies and their applications. In this course, students will explore five areas where administrators can lead and transform educational technology: Visionary Leadership, Digital Age Learning Culture, Excellence in Professional Practice, Systemic Improvement and Digital Citizenship. This is an online course.
