Pick your battles - if you try to fight with them about everything.. nobody wins
- Talk to a colleague about how you are feeling. Sometimes venting is all you need! - Go for a walk at recess or lunch - Take a deep breath and remember, the child is not doing this on purpose and they may be as frustrated as you. - Play a quick game online...
It is important to remember that we need to be fair to all students. Fair means to support them with what they need... not to treat them all the same way.
This statement encompasses what I am trying to achieve in this resource design assessment. It also clearly links to the SMAR model of best ICT use in education, by implementing learning experience with technology that 'redefines' the activity. Meaning the activity is something that could not be done without the technology used.
help children build on their own experiences, construct their own meanings, create products, and solve problems successfully.
In my resource design students will take part in a long term water sustainability project. A website will assist them in attaining access to multiple resources, communication with the outerworld (blogging) and creating products such as videos, visuals etc.
Webquest was used as an inspiration for my resource design, as it provides a useful platform for inquiry units to be created. There are endless examples on there. I really recommend you have a look at them. I decided to create my own website on weebly, as it provided more options and interactivity.
