What is Digital Academy?
The Digital Academy is a year-long professional development program for a team of teachers to become proficient in technology tools and strategies for 21st century education.
Digital Academy participants will receive training and will be supported as they implement best practices in technology integration in their classrooms. They will then work as teacher leaders to share these strategies with their peers to accelerate the use of technology integration strategies throughout the district. Graduate credit from Ashland University will be made available for participation.
The Academy is a professional development program for a team of teachers to become proficient in technology tools and strategies for 21st century education and to have the opportunity to become a Certified Google Educator.
We also welcome teachers from our neighbor school-St. Barnabas! We are excited to have a new group of teachers to learn with and from--and share ideas for direct impact within our Nordonia Hills community!
