Using the Internet to Create Thematic Units

Using thematic units in the curriculum has long been recognized as an effective teaching strategy. With Internet use teachers can add technology projects to instructional units to increase student learning and achievement.

The Department of Educational Technology offers a graduate level course in integrating technology into thematic unit planning. Technology projects are highly motivational for students and also prepare them for 21st century skills.

Please review some of the thematic units that CCSD teachers have created that integrate technology into various curriculum areas:

Freedom
The Faces of Africa
World War II
Teenage Responsibility
Environmental Change
The Big Red Barn
Everything Changes
