Lesson 1 Phase II


 
  1. Instructional Decisions/Teaching (InTask Standard # 9): Discuss the implementation process and describe

Lesson one was presented in a Prezi format. This is fairly new technology to me but have loved many accessories including embedding of YouTube videos. Creating a wonderful flow to the overall lesson. Alignment of objective to standards was spot on. Modifications include not showing a video outlining new age technique for multiplying whole and decimal numbers. Several students were using MAC products that require steps not outlined within the lesson. Courtney was gracious enough to walk classmates to acquire a screen snip.  

  1. Mechanics:

The technology used was utilizing a program found on computers called the Snip Tool presented in a Prezi format. Lesson one centered around buying school supply items in bulk. Students were instructed to add items to their shopping cart from outlined list of options. Upon completing tasks within budget, learners would screen shot their cart using Snip Tool. My lesson was too long because I included to many scaffolding strategies in linking content knowledge to assignment. This lead to cutting information not prevalent to completing the technology tasks.

  1. Assessment of Learning (InTask Standard # 6): Refer to Assessing Student Learning
 




Students did a wonderful job at completing their objective for the technology segment of this lesson. The assessment was not based strictly around standards, creating a gap of learning and standards. Level of success was high in regards to incorporating technology to produce an artifact. However, classmates were critical in linking the assignment with the mathematics objective.

  1. What did you learn from designing and teaching this lesson and how will you use this in the creation of future lessons/learning activities.

I learned that working with students not all using the same technology, myself included, produces obstacles in which will hinder implementation. Specifically using Mac computers and all others. Alterations would include materials for ELL students, completed examples of work expectations, and more practice mastering mathematics standard.
