Applying Educational Technology to Practice	In this course, valuable skills in leveraging technology to enhance teaching and learning was taught. Educational technology was applied to investigate a challenge within the teaching profession: Why don’t teachers ask questions, even when those questions are essential to their success?	To examine this issue, I designed an online survey to gather insights from educators. By collecting and analyzing the responses, I identified multiple factors contributing to this hesitation. While no single answer proved definitive, the data shed light on various barriers teachers face when it comes to asking questions and opened the door for further discussion on how to address them.

The artifact I present from this course highlights my ability to:
✔️ Design an engaging and effective questionnaire
✔️ Collect and analyze meaningful data
✔️ Synthesize findings into actionable insights
