Chris+Carlson_Unit+Portfolio

Hi this is my page.

= Module 4 = Please respond to the following questions. Be sure to attach your unit plan to your discussion to provide your partners context for feedback. A. The students will be using the internet to research additional information about career choices. The culmination of the unit is a field trip to Biz Town which is a similated city for the students to run and operate. In order for them to work the job, they need to be familiar with the required tasks and job characteristics. They will also be using a budget, so they could use a spreadsheet program to assists with those tasks. B. The students will need to work collaboratively on their jobs so the students will use wikispaces and wellwisher to comuunicate with other memembers of their companies. C. None that I can think of at the moment. ==
 * 1) How will you incorporate the use of the Internet in your unit for research, collaboration, and communication?
 * 1) How will the use of the Internet help students develop 21st century and higher-order thinking skills?
 * 1) What feedback or additional ideas are you looking for during this time?

Module 4 Plan Ahead for Module 5 Pair and Share ==

Briefly explain how your student sample addresses the following traits: My student project addresses standards and objectives, addresses 21st century skills, incorporates the curriculum-framing questions, addresses student differences, integrates technology and meets student needs. The whole project focuses on the development of a student becoming a cummunity member with a job and all of the skills required to do so. In this activity, the students focus on the career they are interested in pursuing. They are required to work collaboratively in sharing comments on the wikispace creation and be able to write well in presenting their information. The wikispace introduces a new technology tool for them to explore and the focus aligns to the standards of the project. Attach or link your student sample and your Unit Plan to your Module 5: Pair and Share thread. =﻿ = **﻿** My student sample can be found at: http://carlsonbiztown.wikispaces.com/ Please make suggestions on the comment page. Bill Johnson comments: Chris, I reviewed your unit plan, and I was impressed at the level of detail presented in your discussion of the daily lessons. Will each student create their own wiki like the one in your sample? If so, how much time do you expect this to take? I may have missed this as i went over your plan. Will the students' grades be determined based on the daily activities or the uality of their project? Module 4 Reflections: 1. How can technology be used most effectively to support and assess student learning? I think technology is just another tool to use in the classroom. Technology has the great versatility of immediate feedback which is a huge plus for student assessment and a great time saver for the teachers. Technology also allows for the interaction of the student with a different medium to explore. Considering the universal use of technology the more time the students get to explore and use it in the safe environment, the better equipped they will be in the future for life. As far as project collaboration, technology is a great communication tool. With the versatile use of sharing documents and wikispaces for communication, students don't have to "meet at someone's house" in order to complete a group project any longer. The varialbe conflict of trying to get together no longer needs to be a classroom concern, and students will have the flexibility to work according to their schedule. =
