Instructional Technology
-
Yorkville School District 115 believes that integrating technology into the everyday learning environment is vital to the teaching and learning process. The district is served by Instructional Technology Teachers on Special Assignment (TOSA), TOSAs provide learning opportunities to teachers to support the ways technology enhances and personalizes instruction in and out of the classroom. TOSAs create materials in a variety of learning modes (video, hands-on, document-based) for teachers, and present training sessions across the district in one-on-one, small group, and large group settings. Teachers use educational technology to support the delivery of instructional content and to provide additional opportunities for students to engage in the learning process.
