I am continuing to spend a significant amount of time determining ways to strengthen my confidence in the area of technology integration! In my daily teaching, I am constantly reflecting upon lessons in the different content areas and how I could implement technology. As I review my GAME Plan, I a considering the different resources and additional information that I will need to carry out my plan:
- information on current issues affecting our community
- chart paper and markers
- Internet access
- computers
- class web page and domain
- blogger account
- some continued professional development in the area of technology integration
So, far I have taken some steps for my GAME Plan. For instance I have secured the materials such as computers with Internet access, a blogger account (my own), materials, and I am continuing to learn in this area throughout this current course! I am also exploring some of the different issues affecting our community, and I am having a tough time deciding! I really plan to meet my goals and have my students gain a thorough understanding of real-life problems as well as solutions while experiencing technology as a learning tool and meeting many of our ILA content standards! Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Sarah,
ReplyDeleteIt is great that you are trying to incorporate real-life problems through online access. It is very difficult to integrate technology all of the time because you want to be careful that your students do not become too dependent upon it. It sounds like you are very organized which is very important! Good luck with everything!

Sarah your GAME plan looks good. I really need to consider talking to my peers more about technology. I am going to make it a goal to discuss using technolgy in my classroom and try to get suggestions. Also, using computers in the classroom and making it relevant to life is huge. Your students are very luck to have you. Good luck with carrying this lesson out.
