About

Technology Integration: a Map of Realities and Possibilities is a concept map created by Anna Driver for MEDT 3401 in Fall 2011. It contains 46 nodes organized around a personal SWOT analysis of technology integration in an economics classroom. The map covers 5 top tools (XMind, Wikispace, Windows Movie Maker, Podcast, Microsoft Excel), 2 goals, essential conditions, assistive technology tools, and a self-assessment of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. Key nodes include 'Top 5 Tools' listing specific digital tools, 'My Strengths' highlighting proficiency with Wikispace and XMind, and 'My Threats' addressing technical support and equitable access. This template serves as a reflective framework for educators to evaluate their own technology integration readiness.
