Engage Your Students

Most teachers get frustrated when technology isn't easy to use or is unreliable. At eduPowerTools, we create tutorials, guides, and courses to help teachers overcome obstacles the find when using tech in the classroom. When you feel confident using technology with your students, you can teach better, and your students can learn better.

What's included in coaching?

The instructional technology coaching cycle consists of an 8-week plan where we will:

• Meet initially to discuss your current teaching practices, and any particular problems you are experiencing.
• Develop a customized action plan tailored to your specific needs.
• Weekly meetings over the course the cycle to learn about tools, follow up on things you have tried with your students, and other items that come up.
• Unlimited 1:1 support through email/messaging in between coaching sessions.

How can this benefit me as a teacher?
