The guiding question for the course is: How can technology be used most effectively to support and assess student learning? In the course, you design and develop resources for a unit of study that you teach. Your unit is developed throughout the course's eight modules and consists of:

• A unit plan with student learning objectives aligned to state and/or national standards
• Publication to present the idea of projects in your classroom
• Assessments: assessment presentation to gauge student needs, student sample assessment, other assessments
• Works Cited document
• Student sample (presentation, publication, web-based resource)
• Document(s) to foster self-direction and metacognition, such as project plans, checklists, conference questions, and reflective prompts
• Document(s) to scaffold students' content learning, such as guidelines, forms, and templates
• Implementation Plan
• Teacher presentation, newsletter, brochure, or web-based resource to support the unit
• Management documents
