Utah's formal Digital Teaching and Learning (DTL) initiative began in 2012 with the collaborative efforts of local school systems, the Utah State Board of Education, the Utah Education and Telehealth Network (UETN), and the Legislature working together. This led to the creation of Utah's Master Plan: Essential Elements for Technology-Powered Learning, which articulates the intent of technology-powered learning in Utah, including the critical role of educators as the architects of learning.
Each section of this hub has resources and tools to assist districts, schools, administrators, and teachers as technology is leveraged to improve teaching and learning. The resources in this hub have been curated to support you as you augment effective pedagogy practices with purposeful implementation of educational technology, always keeping in mind that learning comes first and technology is secondary to exceptional pedagogy.
