There will be an emphasis on developing literacies with digital, networked, and open technologies as we explore the major shifts in education such as personalization, connectedness, openness, assessment, and access. These educators will be able to provide leadership in the transformations toward more open inquiry-based learning and diverse classroom modalities, such as blended, online, open, and multi-access. Our graduates will develop personal learning networks to carry with them into their professional practice as we make use of video conferencing, social media, and collaborative apps to support innovative projects.<\/p>\n<p>View further information for the M.Ed. on the Math, Science, Social Studies, and Educational Technology page on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uvic.ca\/education\/curriculum\/graduate\/programs\/mascss\/index.php\">Curriculum and Instruction Department website<\/a>\u00a0and in the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/web.uvic.ca\/calendar2019-09\/grad\/programs\/edcd\/program-requirements.html#\">UVic Calendar<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Program Modality<\/h2>\n<p>Our M.Ed. cohort is offered in such a way that you can complete the entire program online. Some courses are offered in multi-access format, which means learners can choose to be in the video conference-enabled classroom or to come in via video synchronously, while others are offered entirely online (with a mix of synchronous and asynchronous communication).<\/p>\n<h2>Sample Program Offering<\/h2>\n<p>EDCI 570\/1 Research in Curriculum and Instruction<br \/>\nEDCI 515 E-Research: Harnessing and Understanding Technology in Research<br \/>\nEDCI 568 Discourse on Social Media for Connected and Personalized Learning<br \/>\nEDCI 569 The Distributed, Blended, and Open Classroom<br \/>\nEDCI 532 Emerging Trends &amp; Topics in Curriculum Studies<br \/>\nEDCI 565 Research &amp; Practice of Learning Design<br \/>\nEDCI 572 Development and Implementation of the Curriculum<br \/>\nEDCI 598A Project Proposal and Literature Review<br \/>\nEDCI 598B Project<br \/>\nEDCI 597 Project Dissemination<\/p>\n<h3>Program Timeline for 2023 Intake<\/h3>\n<p>This is a rough overview and may shift slightly as we go with advanced notice.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/edtechuvic.ca\/med\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/2023-Intake-Program-Timeline-1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1496\" src=\"https:\/\/edtechuvic.ca\/med\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/2023-Intake-Program-Timeline-1-1024x503.png\" alt=\"2023 Intake Program Timeline\" width=\"676\" height=\"332\" srcset=\"https:\/\/edtechuvic.ca\/med\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/2023-Intake-Program-Timeline-1-1024x503.png 1024w, https:\/\/edtechuvic.ca\/med\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/2023-Intake-Program-Timeline-1-300x147.png 300w, https:\/\/edtechuvic.ca\/med\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/2023-Intake-Program-Timeline-1-768x377.png 768w, https:\/\/edtechuvic.ca\/med\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/2023-Intake-Program-Timeline-1-1536x754.png 1536w, https:\/\/edtechuvic.ca\/med\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/2023-Intake-Program-Timeline-1-2048x1006.png 2048w, https:\/\/edtechuvic.ca\/med\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/2023-Intake-Program-Timeline-1-600x295.png 600w, https:\/\/edtechuvic.ca\/med\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/09\/2023-Intake-Program-Timeline-1-945x464.png 945w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 676px) 100vw, 676px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Contacts<\/h2>\n<p>Program Contact<br \/>\n<a href=\"mailto:edtech@uvic.ca\">edtech [at] uvic.ca<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Graduate Advisor<br \/>\n<a href=\"mailto:edcigradadv@uvic.ca\">edcigradadv <\/a><a href=\"mailto:edtech@uvic.ca\">[at]<\/a> <a href=\"mailto:edcigradadv@uvic.ca\">uvic.ca<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Graduate Secretary<br \/>\n<a href=\"mailto:edcigrad@uvic.ca\">edcigrad<\/a><a href=\"mailto:edtech@uvic.ca\"> [at]<\/a><a href=\"mailto:edcigrad@uvic.ca\"> uvic.ca<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Department Of Curriculum and Instruction <a href=\"http:\/\/www.uvic.ca\/edci\">www.uvic.ca\/edci<\/a><br \/>\nFaculty of Education <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uvic.ca\/education\/index.php\">https:\/\/www.uvic.ca\/education\/index.php\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The M.Ed. program we offer that focuses on Educational Technology is designed for educators, learning support, and administrators, at the K12 or postsecondary level, who wish to develop their competencies to integrate technology to enhance and transform teaching and learning&#8230;. <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/edtechuvic.ca\/med\/\">Continue Reading &rarr;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":1067,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-34","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/edtechuvic.ca\/med\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/34","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/edtechuvic.ca\/med\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/edtechuvic.ca\/med\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/edtechuvic.ca\/med\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/edtechuvic.ca\/med\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=34"}],"version-history":[{"count":23,"href":"https:\/\/edtechuvic.ca\/med\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/34\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1497,"href":"https:\/\/edtechuvic.ca\/med\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/34\/revisions\/1497"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/edtechuvic.ca\/med\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1067"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/edtechuvic.ca\/med\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=34"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
