Both of these websites are used with each unit or lesson in Reading or Math. It can also be accessed at home by parents and students. Some games included in the sites might provide some behavioral activity, however, it is general more cognitive in nature. The learning is presented through a website used via iPads, computer, or interactive white board, however it is learner-centered on the standards and objectives directly correlated with the units and lessons being studied at school in Reading or Math.

The presentation is designed to begin with a self-reflective quiz about the learner's beliefs about motivation. The presentation might be useful in conjunction with a discussion activity and perhaps a mind mapping project.

* Brief description of Web site: A free web-based tool that allows users the ability to publish content to the web instantly. This site gives users a way to the blog publishing process without writing any code or installing any sort of server software or scripts. * Brief explanation of why you found this site to be better than others you found: Besides the fact that this is a free resource, this site is very user friendly. Furthermore, the fact that it is a Google byproduct (purchasing by Google), users can access it through their Google account (if they have one).

Google Sites are, first and foremost, versatile. Sites can be created for a variety of purposes, and Google has templates to make creation easy. Once a site is created using a template, it can be completely edited and personalized to fit the needs of the user. One way that Google Sites can be used for authentic assessment is to create portfolios. Since templates allow the user to customize their site, the teacher can create a template for the portfolio that each student could adapt to their own taste. Portfolios created using Google Sites can promote generative processing by encouraging students to organize the information they learned and integrate the new content with prior knowledge as they create authentic products. Google Sites is better than other sites for portfolio creation because it is user friendly and can be used with Google Apps for Education.

Participants will be using Cacoo in the class to organize their thoughts in a graphic organizer. They will be able to make a copy of a graphic organizer that was created through Cacoo as well as have access to the original.

The active learning that will take place would be both behavioral and cognitive. Behavioral learning will take place as they interact and add to the graphic organizer. Cognitive learning will take place as the participants generate ideas and organize them into their graphic organizer.

This site focused on behavioral activity because it used chunking to break down the parts of the tutorial into manageable sections. After reviewing this website it lead to the assumption that it was technology centered approach because this tutorial has no connection of prior knowledge or any type of feedback (Mayer, 2010).
