  • Activities: Students research and construct a time line that stars from the middle of the 19th century and projects into to the near future. Appropriate pictures will be drawn or placed on the time line to help emphasize historical facts that include scientific discoveries, industrial applications, and current events that may be related.

      This activity might be best in small groups. It will give an opportunity for diverse learners to succeed and express their views in a non-threatening environment.
  • Students will research and construct a pamphlet that includes: symptoms of disease, genetic causes of disease, genetic testing, population/risk, possible treatment, genetics screening techniques, cost, social and ethical implication.

      The links above are fantastic - I can see a million possibilites with this task.
  • Students will use one or all games to review basic information and Punnett Square problems. These games use soccer, basketball and the game show idea deal or no deal.

      These ideas are so inclussive. This particular excercise has the potential to minimize the negative leveling from peers.

      I think this particular acitvity might be best in a small group. Diverse learners will also benefit from this activity.
  • The idea of this site is to provide a central location for “how to” guides so that you can start building your own PLN

      I am amazed at how much I have already learned in a month. Kimberly won't always be our instructor, but hopefully we will know where to find technological help from now on.
  • to create connections with others which extend our learning

      Creating a connection with our students should be a main priority. Furthermore, class blogs will provide a safe environment for our students to ask questions and take advantage of technology

    This teacher has some great 'hands-on' ideas. My favorites are highlighted.

Technology Integration Matrix - 0 views

  •  
    The Technology Integration Matrix (TIM) illustrates how teachers can use technology to enhance learning for K-12 students. The TIM incorporates five interdependent characteristics of meaningful learning environments: active, constructive, goal directed (i.e., reflective), authentic, and collaborative (Jonassen, Howland, Moore, & Marra, 2003). The TIM associates five levels of technology integration (i.e., entry, adoption, adaptation, infusion, and transformation) with each of the five characteristics of meaningful learning environments.

They don't all really need laptops, do they? - 0 views

  •  
    I've been getting this question a lot lately from administrators, parents, and taxpayers. The question isn't malicious, but rather comes from folks with a vested interest in making sure that our technology dollars directly benefit students. Does giving teachers laptops directly benefit students? For people who aren't actively teaching in a classroom, that's a hard question to answer. I don't think it's very hard for teachers to answer the question, though, especially at the secondary level. For most people entering the business world, there is no question that they will have a computer on their desk when they are hired. It might be a laptop, a desktop, a shared desktop facilitated with some sort of flextime arrangement, or even a computer allowance so that the new hire can buy a machine that makes them the most productive. However, it's not terribly likely that they'll just be handed a dry erase marker and a whiteboard, pointed towards a copy machine, and told to go for it.
