The program is designed to meet the “appropriate master’s degree” requirement, which is part of the criteria for professional stage licensure as set forth in the most recent MA DESE licensure regulations. This concentration is intended to help early childhood classroom teachers learn how to effectively use various technologies to help their students learn. Technology is integrated throughout the program’s course work and offerings are aligned with Massachusetts standards.
