Technology Instruction
Technology
Instruction at the South Shore Educational Collaborative helps
educators, librarians, counselors, and administrators from
area schools reach a higher level of competency in
computers, software, and integrating technology in the K-12
classroom.
Instruction is available year
round in most software
applications, including web 2.0 offering such as blogs,
wikis, podcasts, and social media. All courses provide professional development points. All employees of K-12 alliance schools may attend technology
instruction at no charge. The standard fee for educators
is $100 per course day; $200 for non-educators who
wish to attend.
