The purpose of this course is to familiarize teachers with the newly structured Technology Applications Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TA TEKS) for students in kindergarten through second grade. This course aims to equip educators with the knowledge and tools necessary to integrate these standards effectively into their teaching practices.
This course is designed not only for computer teachers tasked with teaching K-2 students about technology but also for classroom teachers looking to integrate the Technology Applications Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TA TEKS) into their curriculum. It offers valuable insights and strategies for elementary administrators responsible for supervising and evaluating these educators, instructional coaches seeking to support teacher development, and instructional technology staff and directors aiming to enhance their school’s technological engagement and curriculum. This comprehensive approach ensures that all staff involved in early elementary education are equipped to foster a technologically enriched learning environment.
