The School of Education (SOE) Academic Technology Specialist (ATS) endeavors to assist SOE faculty and staff with their pedagogical and technological skills to improve classroom instruction and make their use of technology more effective and efficient.

SOE ATS

Priorities

There are many ways to support instructors in effectively integrating technology into teaching and learning, including but not limited to: one-on-one consultations, small group workshops, training documentation, recommendations for appropriate technologies based on objectives, and applying learning theory to instructional design.

By collaborating with campus constituents, we hope to be able to meet any needs our instructors have related to using technology in support of the development and delivery of their instruction.

Training & Workshops

Individual

If you are looking for a session, tailored specifically to your wants and needs, then an individual consultation may be an efficient use of your time.

Small Group

Sometimes it can be beneficial for an entire department or group to attend a session together. An option to consider is the ability to schedule a sessions during an already scheduled meeting time for your group.

Scheduled Workshops

Our scheduled workshops are open for registration to anyone within SOE and include a wide range of topics, including but not limited to Canvas, Teams, and Drop-in Sessions. If you are looking for training and don’t see something you are interested in listed, please consider reaching out.

Newsletter

Our Newsletter, SOE Technology Connections, is an effort to provide monthly installments of technology tips and tricks, professional development opportunities, and both pedagogical and technology-based tips and tricks for instruction to our SOE faculty and staff.

teaching in the School of Education

Teaching is not just about the tools that we use but about the planning that goes into the way we present information to our learners. A self-paced Canvas course has been created to assist instructors in SOE to learn more about the resources and tools that are available to them as a member of SOE as well as a part of UNC Greensboro.
