Week 6 - GAME update

G - My goal is to take a risk by developing lessons that incorporate digital-age learning experiences and model the technology and process for my students.
A - The actions I will take are as follows: I will work with the technology integrator at my school to help in my lesson planning and learning about any technology that is involved.
M - I will monitor my lessons and planning according to student involvement and enthusiasm and the completion of the task. They will have rubrics to help them chunk the tasks.
E - The evaluation will be the assessment of the students' work/project(s). If they were successful, I will know that I am on the right track. I can assess them with quizzes and tests also to see if they learned what was intended. I will extend my learning by sitting down again with the technology integrator and evaluating the lessons and the students' end product.


•What have you learned so far that you can apply in your instructional practice?
I have learned about ePals and am planning on trying them with my students.
•What goals are you still working toward?
I am still working working with my technology integrator. She is so busy. Often,
we have to have conversations on the phone instead of in person. It's slower, but
it's better than nothing. She is so wonderful!
•Based on the NETS-T, what new learning goals will you set for yourself?
I'm not sure I'm ready for anything else new at this point. I'm really trying to
get down what I'm doing here before going on to the next phase. I'm already over-
whelmed as it is and I don't want to add to that.
•If you are not ready to set new learning goals, how will you extend what you have learned so far?
I want to get more comfortable with what I am already using - wiki, blogs etc.
•What learning approaches will you try next time to improve your learning?
At this time, I really can't think of anything I would do differently.
