In the University of Virginia’s Curry School of Education’s Ed.S. program, Instructional Science & Technology (IT) is not just a program; it is a key theme in the identity of the entire school and is influential across the university. Twenty faculty members from across the Curry School and University come together to focus on IT, and students have rich learning opportunities across a range of focal areas.
