Mercy is committed to the professional growth of our teachers, investing significant time, energy, and financial resources in order to stay closely connected to educational best practices. Through partnership with EdTech consultants Knowing Technologies, faculty are challenged to continuously learn, improve, and develop innovative ways to engage students!
Though teachers do employ exciting new tools such as apps and multimedia, technology itself is not the focus of innovation. The objective is to understand the benefits that technology can provide, so that students can lead and own their learning. Mercy’s innovation goals coincide with a larger education trend permeating the industry of reimagining what teaching looks like -- where learning and classrooms are student-centered, and teachers leverage strategies and digital tools to further engage students and deepen their learning. Mercy faculty are actively experimenting and innovating, paving the way in the EdTech space to redesign the learning experience.
