Web title: An Introduction to Technology Integration
Web link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d59eG1_Tt-Q Applemeter: 100% 1. What is the purpose of the lesson - is it an intro to new material, review, extending learning, etc? The purpose of the lesson was to introduce and allow students to create podcast, movies, songs, etc. to help them express their ideas. 2. Ask yourself: How do you know the students are learning? Watching the video I know students are learning by how engaged they are while they are doing the assignment. The students looks happy and excited while they are creating their movies, songs, or podcast. There was also a scene where the teacher was lecturing and many students had their hands up trying to participate because they are having so much fun with the lesson. 3. Ask yourself: What is the teacher doing? I.E. What elements of the lesson (pedagogy, modeling, questioning techniques, etc) did you observe? The teacher throughout the video is giving her students directions on the assignment but allowing her students to explore and experiment on how to accomplish it on their own term. The teacher is allowing her students to express their ideas using technology without being overbearing and authoritarian. The teacher allows the students to "take ownership of their learning" when doing their assignment. As it said in the video Technology in the Classroom: Digital Media, "The use of technology in the classroom will result in a more productive learning environment." (http://bit.ly/2Cs3Fho) 4. Was there anything different about them from “traditional” learning? Everything was different about this class compared to "traditional" learning. Students were working more in groups, students were more engaged, students were more expressive, students were more critically thinking, and students were having more fun within the classroom. 5. Could you potentially use this lesson? I would love to use this type of lesson within my own classroom as long as I have the proper technology, applications, or even programs for my entire class. I don't want to only have this great lesson only for a few students, that would create a "FLAT WORLD" and may cause inequality in their education.
