Mission
Statement
Our mission at VOLTT is to help school districts develop, for their
students and teachers, the most engaging and effective online learning
experiences possible. Based on years of our own online educational
experiences, current research in the field, new understandings of
learning theory, learner preferences, and educational best practices,
we offer our clients the chance to become leaders in their learning
communities. Key VOLTT goals are to work online and face-to-face with
professional educators, teaching them the pedagogy, technology, and
collaborative skills necessary to create and/or teach existing courses
online as well as other basic technological skills.
As
many states across the United States are mandating teachers to understand
and teach with technology in order to maintain their teaching certification,
the need for excellent, time-efficient, and productive training is
extreme. In rural areas of the country, getting the mandatory training
is difficult at best, often requiring long drives to regional centers
of higher education. With its experienced staff of professionals,
VOLTT will allow continuing education and the delivery of content
rich curriculum to be much more accessible. VOLTT will "level the
Professional Development playing field" while bringing new practices
to teachers and their hosting schools.
