How TechConX addresses technology integration in classrooms
We have become a technologically oriented world. Today, various forms of technology are routinely used in classrooms, including desktops, laptops, tablets, and smartphones. To accompany this hardware, there are many educational software packages, online databases, and mobile applications available to educators that aid in the teaching and learning process. But the most important aspect of integrating and using technology purposefully in the classroom is teacher professional development and practice!
Canadian International School (CIS), a top school in Bangalore, has been a frontrunner in integrating technology in the classroom. As India’s 1st Apple Distinguished School, we believe that technology is an engaging and interesting tool that can be easily leveraged for educational purposes. We take great pride in enhancing teaching and learning through the selective and effective use of technology. TechConX, our annual educational technology conference at CIS, is a dedicated to exploring and discussing ideas on integrating technology in the classroom. It is a chance for our educators and those around Bangalore and India to interact, share best practices, and focus on what is best for student learning in terms of technology.
This year’s 2-day TechConX theme is, ‘Explore, Engage, Educate’. Day 1 is aptly titled ‘Exploring the Day with IOS’ and is sponsored by Brilyant, an Apple reseller in India. The conference will offer a variety of sessions designed to foster hands-on and collaborative learning. You’ll discover diverse and relevant courses, many led by Apple Distinguished Educators, along with learning opportunities all focused on your most pressing challenges and technological implementations. Day 2 includes multiple workshop sessions for educators across South East Asia to share their learning in the classroom. Members of Consilience, an education technology not-for-profit group will also be providing workshops on design thinking and for school leaders on implementing the technology.
Workshops and presentations on both days will give you the unique opportunity to delve deeply into topics and learn new skills and strategies. We will also be discussing current and emerging technologies, as well as best practices developed through research and actual classroom experience. These will be demonstrated and explored in sessions throughout the conference. TechConX at Canadian International School (CIS) presents a unique and engaging opportunity for you to learn to effectively use and integrate technology into your classroom.
