Blog Phase III: Comprehensive Reflection

  • Standard 1: Facilitate and Inspire Student Learning and Creativity
    1. promote, support, and model creative and innovative thinking and inventiveness.- For this they would use kidspiration to be creative in any and every way.
    2. engage students in exploring real-world issues and solving authentic problems using digital tools and resources.-For this I would use the internet for students to research and write papers to display knowledge.
    3. promote student reflection using collaborative tools to reveal and clarify students' conceptual understanding and thinking, planning, and creative processes.-For this I would allow collaboration through google drive this would allow for them to use technology and resources.
    4. model collaborative knowledge construction by engaging in learning with students, colleagues, and others in face-to-face and virtual environments.-For this I would use glogster so they can visually engage and show other their work and thinking process.


  • Standard 4: Promote and Model Digital Citizenship and Responsibility
    1. advocate, model, and teach safe, legal, and ethical use of digital information and technology, including respect for copyright, intellectual property, and the appropriate documentation of sources.-For this I would have student research on what this is and have them make a powerpoint on each area.
    2. address the diverse needs of all learners by using learner-centered strategies providing equitable access to appropriate digital tools and resources.- For this I would allow students multiple resources or tools for all assignments.
    3. promote and model digital etiquette and responsible social interactions related to the use of technology and information.-For this I would show students examples of how to do this and why it is important by allowing them to work through my glogster.
    4. develop and model cultural understanding and global awareness by engaging with colleagues and students of other cultures using digital-age communication and collaboration tools.-For this I would have students research other cultures and how much assess they have to technology.

Lesson 2 Phase 2 Post 2

  1. Mechanics:
    • I used the smart board to introduce centers and how they work. Students used internet to do centers and kidspiration to complete their fraction stories.
    • Smartboard was used for about 5 minutes and internet for 30 minutes while kidspiration was used for the remained of the time.
    • My lesson was within the correct time frame because of the multiple uses of technology students used as well as what was required of them with their fraction stories.

Lesson 2 Phase 2 Post 1

  1. Instructional Decisions/Teaching (InTask Standard # 9): Discuss the implementation process and describe
    •  The things that when well were the stories them selves that the students produced however, the center sites didn't go as well because one of them were down at the beginning of the center time.
    • These were very well aligned with standards and helped build knowledge towards the finished products which was the main purpose of the centers.
    • I had to make changes to centers because of the one that wasn't working as well as finished works because some students were late.
