Technology Enhanced Collaborative Learning Coordination: The Clinical Experience
Abstract: This virtual poster session is appropriate for graduate education faculty responsible for the coordination of clinical experiences or for faculty who work in programs offering internships, practica or other clinical experiences. This session will engage clinical teacher educators in a discussion on uses of technology for purposes of collaborative learning and will allow attendees to identify activities which capitalize on pre-service educators’ knowledge and use of technology tools. University faculty and site supervisors must model technology use first if preservice professionals are going to value and use technology themselves. Therefore, presenters will examine tools available to pre-service educators which may be used to enhance the multiple dimensions of internships and clinical experiences.
