Last week I learned more about how I could monitor my progress by creating a checklist (Thanks, Amy G!) I found it interesting that I generate checklists and rubrics for my students quite often; however, I did not think about using one in my own NETS-T GAME plan.
This week’s resources helped me review summative and formative assessments, so I can check this off the list. However, I am going to need to draw some kind of concept map to align the assessments I do with content and technology standards. Basically, I need a graphic organizer to get a clear picture. I will definitely need to review chapter five of our course text in order to do this. (Yes, I am extremely visual!)
Currently I am in pursuit of a list of current and emerging digital tools that I would like to learn more about in order to inform and teach students. Specifically, I would like to learn about MovieMaker, so I can have my students create digital stories next school year.

I think you have a good plan in place. I think that having students know about Moviemaker and podcasting would be a good place to start. Do you have professional learning courses available or will you have to figure it out on your own?
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, there are no professional learning courses available, so I will have to figure it out on my own. However, I have a student who would like to teach the class next week what she knows about MovieMaker. This should be motivating!
ReplyDeleteHi Megan,
ReplyDeleteChecklists are an excellent organizational tool for both students and teachers. As you reflect they are also easy to modify for your next use.
It is great to learn about new technologies. How can we find out about emerging new technology sources when we are finished with our Walden courses?
Hi Megan,
ReplyDeleteMoviemaker is a wonderful program. I am growing in familiarity of it workings myself, but I have seen some really some really fantastic things done with it. Everything from projects to visual motivation for pep rallies. There are so many cool things that I am sure you will be able to come up with. Your students will have a blast with it while they are learning. How great is that?!
Good luck,
Rebecca
