Week 3 - Carrying out my GAME Plan

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 resources will I need to carry this out?
I will need the expertise and experience of my technology integrator. I will get ideas from the course readings and videos. I will use the resources from the Promethean Board to get World Languages ideas. Finally, I will e-mail my colleagues to see what they have done and have had success with.

What additional information will I need?
I will get feedback from my students as to what they already know, what their interests are and have them reflect on their learning styles. In addition to this, I will need to find out when the technology is available and if my students will be able to complete technology-related projects if need be.

What steps have I been able to take so far?
I have e-mailed our school's technology integrator and created a reflective questionaire for my students that I will administer after the Thanksgiving break. I have also started perusing existing resources to see how I can incorporate this into my classroom.
