Instructional Support

The MAPS Technology Department also strives to provide ongoing instructional technology related professional development to all MAPS employees. Utilizing technology as a learning tool to redefine learning versus using for substitution purposes, personalizes learning and promotes higher-level thinking. MAPS incorporates a Digital Citizenship curriculum into K-8 daily instruction to educate students about appropriate technology use.
