M.Ed. Educational Technology

We designed this plan for graduates who are, or intend to become, educators and who exhibit leadership in educational technology. Our goals are to help you develop expertise and skill in using and applying software and integrating educational technologies within any learning environment: from Pre-kindergarten to college and from in-person classes to distant learning ones.

Candidates in this program of study are required to demonstrate content, pedagogical, and professional knowledge and skills to be eligible to enter the capstone course (ETC 695).  A candidate’s content, pedagogical, and professional knowledge and skills are demonstrated through their performance on key assessments that are embedded in all ETC courses taken prior to the capstone experience.   To successfully complete this master's program of study, candidates must also pass their capstone project.
