Survival, love and belonging, power, fun, and freedom-and edtech?

In episode three of EdTech Architects, we'll explore a key learning theory and how we can use this theory as a guide to reflect on our past, present, and plan future educational technology integration. We'll discuss William Glasser's "Choice Theory" in behaviors and learning, and how to utilize this theory as a lens to reflect on edtech integrations. Glasser proposes all of our actions are influenced by our internal desire to satisfy 5 basic needs. How does this translate to the classroom-and how can it shape our edtech integrations, for the better?
