- Before starting a project with students one should consider what we have for the lesson. If the school provides the needed resources, what as a teacher we'll need to buy, if any outside help is needed for the project including extra technology. Also making sure that every portion of the project is reading for students including guidelines.
- Both students and teachers need to equally utilize time management skills. Teachers need to make sure that everything is graded properly for the students on time, and students need to have their work in on time in order to get it graded. By using a project schedule or calendar for the class can help keep everyone involved on the same page and on task.
- There are many different levels of technology available to students. Some are very simple which would be the ones that we would be starting with and working our way towards the more complex programs. Some of the programs that I would encourage my students to use would be ones that I am familiar with at first so I could help them then we could together as a class learn to use different applications.
- Our project relates in many ways to this chapter. When starting we had to evaluate what we needed for the lesson, what resources would be used, what extra help we would need with our sections that we were working on. Time management is a huge one because we must keep everything on track, for ourselves and for our "students". Also we've been using and will be using different programs, some of which I am familiar with some my partners are and some we must learn to use together.

I really like your first paragraph, one should consider what they have for the lesson. I also agree with the second paragraph students and teachers need to utilize time management skills. Good job!
ReplyDeleteI liked how you mentioned using different types of technology. For example, the ones you know and then furthering your and the class's exploration together on other technologies. I think it is very important to do things together with the class, rather than always teaching. As a teacher, it is awesome if you can also learn with the kids! Good job :)
ReplyDeleteI agree with your input when it comes to using technology during the projects. I think it is important to start with easier uses of technology at the beginning so that students can feel comfortable with the use of technology during the project. With the confidence they gain at the beginning, the students will be more excited about learning difficult forms of technology later on in the project.
ReplyDeleteI really liked that you will use the computer programs in your classroom and start with the ones that you are familiar with instead of learning with the students.
