This page provides a breakdown of videos within the Technology Integration Matrix by grade level. Although you may be primarily interested in a particular level, we encourage you to view the ways in which technology is used in other grade levels.

Some videos involve students from both middle and high school grades and some involve students from both middle and elementary grades. These videos appear in both lists below.
