iTeach Therefore iLearn:
the MERIT Summer Institute
“Making Education Relevant and Interactive Through Technology” is the philosophy of MERIT, the KCI’s flagship teacher professional development program. MERIT is a year-long program that starts in July with a two-week summer institute. This year, forty-eight teachers engaged in an intensive learning experience that covered a number of educational technology topics, such as problem-based learning, Web 2.0 collaboration tools, technology integration in the curriculum, and the use of the iPod Touch in education. The overarching goal of MERIT is for teachers to develop the skills to transform their classroom into a relevant, student-centered learning environment through the appropriate use of technology.
“The program reinvigorated my teaching and reaffirmed my commitment to the integration of educational technology.” —Dominic Bigue, Film/TV English, Capuchino High School, San Bruno
