Welcome back to another episode of the Teaching with Valor Podcast. I'm your host, Don Fessenden, and today we’re diving into a topic that has become increasingly vital in the modern classroom: the effective use of technology tools.
As educators, we know that technology has transformed how we teach and how our students learn. But with so many tools, apps, and platforms available, it can feel overwhelming to figure out what works best.
How to implement them effectively, and, most importantly, how to use them in a way that truly enhances learning rather than just adding another layer of complexity.
