Well it is official, summer is over and the beginning of a new school year is upon us. We want to give a warm welcome to all of the new educators joining the PBT family at each campus this year. Thanks for choosing to come to this amazing district and add your talents to our team. We also want to say welcome back to all of our returning educators. This is shaping up to be a great year here in Pecos. With the new year beginning, the Instructional Technology team thought now would be the perfect time to put a post together about what Instructional Technology is and what our Instructional Technolgists do. So without further ado, lets dive in:
What is Instructional Technology?
Instructional Technology is one of the newer departments here at PBT ISD. It is our job to work hand in hand with the district and campus administration teams, along with the IT department to ensure that we have latest and greatest classroom tech, that our teachers know how to use that tech, and that we are mindfully integrating it into our lesson plans and overall vision for the district.
What does an Instructional Technologist Do?
For this section, we'll let our own Caleb Magness explain what he does via video.
Instructional Technology plays a huge role in ensuring our students receive the best education possible while they attend PBT ISD. If you have any questions about the department or what it is we do, feel free to leave a comment down below, or you can email Caleb directly. We hope everyone has an amazing year and can't wait to start meeting with you all again.
Best,
PBT Instructional Technology Team
