This program recognizes the importance of integrating curriculum with innovative technology. In addition to core training in both areas, specialty tracks develop K-12 technology coordinators and master teachers who integrate learning technologies into the K-12 curriculum (educational technology track) and curriculum specialists who direct curricular design, implementation, and evaluation in K-12 schools (curriculum track).
