Project

For my project next week I am designing a lesson where the students need to read two chapters from the book 1776 and then create a informative page or slide about what they read using a google doc that will be provided as a link on their ning page. After all students have finished creating a slide and then adding on to someone elses slide. I will compile all their presentations and the students will present what they created and why in class as a slide show presentation. This way all students will generally understand the most important points of the book without having to read the entire thing.

At the beginning of the course I never gave much thought about technology in the classroom. I considered using PowerPoint and other forms of technology within the classroom, but I never thought of using the internet extensively. Since taking this class I've become aware that in addition to PowerPoint, you can use technology like Garage Band, and Imovie. In addition to these there are many different types of social networks or websites that can enhance our teaching. I'm glad I've taken this class and learned different ways to interact with students using new types of technology.
