Task 1: Building a Weebly Home
How exciting to have your very own website!!! This task was an amazing icebreaker because it opened doors to a whole world of technology. I have introduced myself to the world by creating my HOME page and can expand my thoughts at any time. Now I have a place to share my experiences and to gain feedback from the rest of the world.
Task 2: Journal Article Summary- Information and Technology Literacy
I think technology is amazing what do other people think? This article summary is a small look into how others view the benefits of Technology. Technolgy has so many features that it can empower entire curriculums...
Task 3: Experiencing a Learning Web- The Technicalities of Legalities
Who new there were so many rules!!! Watch out teachers because you may be overstepping your bounds. Although we want to be the best teachers possible we too must follow the rules of the Acceptable Use Policy, purchasing agreements, and Copyright Laws, while steering clear of software piracy.
Read up because there are rules, rules, rules...
Task 4: STAR Center- Enough Said
This task allowed the class to experience TrailFire. What a wonderful tool!!! The teacher is scaffolding the child even if the child is at home!!! You have probably heard of a sticky...but believe me after creating a TrailFire you will no longer resort to the POST IT stickies, but instead, will fall "head over heels" for the paperless stickies in TrailFire.
Task 5: Virtual Connections
TrailFire- I used my knowledge I gained through the TrailFire teaching to create my own TailFire on Photosynthesis. This will allow my students to learn on their own with me not being to far behind.
PowerPoint Game- Students love games!!! PowerPoint was probably the most comfortable tool we used in class. I had some previous experience with PowerPoint and was excited to "breath" while creating a reinforcement skill for learning at the same time.
Score Card- children love games but they also love competition...
VoiceThread- You can put voice to pictures!!! This was probably my most favorite learning tool. I took pictures, I put my voice behind the pictures, and TaDah... A lesson all in its own.
Card Games/Puzzles-
Task 6: Teaching and Learning Through LP Development (Multi-Media Lesson Plan)
On this final task we pulled together several things we learned over the course. As I was writing this lesson plan I could actually see myself implementing this lesson within the classroom. Technology is a great way to enforce Differeintiation!!!
