      Common Question I: Effective Instructional Strategies Please discuss three most effective instructional strategies integrated in your project. Please be sure to justify why they are effective instructional strategies.

    Michaela- Great job! I think with a few tweaks you will have a powerful learning tool on your hands. My biggest complaint is some of the color choice for fonts- but it is minor and easily fixed. -Melissa Aim/Purpose-Novice- There is a statement about the page being used for collaboration, but I would of liked to have seen more about the aim/purpose relating to the aspect of Women's Suffrage. This may be something that is discussed in class, but if another teacher wanted to use it, this would be unclear. Lesson Plan/Teacher's Guide/ Instructional Plan-Mastery- Link is included and detailed lesson plans are attached. Student Activity Page-Expert- Detailed instructions, great links, and a detailed rubric are all attached. Parent Page-Mastery- Includes a letter to parents explaining project. Layout-Mastery- Minor complaint- the color of the text gets lost at times and the fact that you have to scroll a lot to get important information on the home page detracted from the overall layout. Navigation-Expert- Navigation bar is easy to use and present on every page (that helps!) Resource links open in new tab which allows the user access to the activity details while researching- which is great. Graphics-Mastery- Graphics relate directly to the project, but I am not seeing citations for them. Accessibility-Expert- Images have ALT tags- no audio in this project. Fonts-Mastery- The color and size do not always match on each page . Background-Expert- The background does not take from the readability. Color Choices-Mastery- Links are the same color as some of the quotations- which can be misleading. The blue color is almost too close to the background color. Spelling and Grammar-Expert-none Copyright-Mastery- No separate citations included, but links to source included in quotes. Contact Information-Novice- No statement of authorship found

      George, Great lesson that tackles an important topic of Internet safety, provides great definitions, resources, and is very clear and focused throughout. Your lesson uses a nice mix of technology tools (Delicious, Google Docs). * Aim/Purpose - Expert: Opening page provides a brief description of the lesson and WHY it is important to learn the concepts. Excellent! * Lesson Plan/Teacher's Guide/ Instructional Plan : Expert: Step by step procedures provided (any instructor could implement this lesson based on the information provided). Appropriate content and tech standards. Rubric is aligned with activities/process. One suggestion: have a downloadable version for teachers to print out. * Student Activity Page: Expert: Activities arranged in a logical order are focused and engaging. Great use of delicious for compiling the required lesson links. Activities are appropriate and aligned with the stated objectives. Nice use of tech tools such as Google docs in the collaborative portion of the lesson. One suggestion: depending on the size of the class, dividing the class into smaller groups to contribute to the Google doc. The way the lesson is described it sounds like the whole class participates in the same Google doc - could get overwhelming with 15 plus students. * Parent Page : Expert: Excellent information provided for parents on how to engage their learners outside the learning environment on a particularly important topic of Internet safety. Well Done! * Web Design: * Layout - Mastery: Pages are clearly labeled - users know exactly what they will find on each page. Some text falls outside the white space onto the background - particularly bullet lists. * Navigation - Expert: Easy navigation with the main menu located at the top of each page. * Graphics - Expert: Great use of graphic for both instructional purposes and web design - each one is referenced. * Accessibility - Expert: Graphics contain ALT tags. *

    Pam I liked your wiki lesson plan. Depending on the age of students, the approach you took is very basic, clear, and easy to follow. Unfortunately the rubric asked for items you did not include. Some of it is the problem with wikis (I think) and some are just omitted. I think it might be helpful to give your kids more resources for their research and some more questions to answer on their research so they stay focused. I have not figured out how to post the review on Diigo, but when I do I will. Phil Howardell

    Aim/Purpose-Novice-Intro page has very little information on it, but depending on the age group, which I cannot tell, it might be very appropriate. I think this page needs more of an introduction. Lesson Plan-Mastery-Links are clear, easy to find and they all work. Student Activity Page- Mastery-Directions page lack links and you really need to go to each group's pages to get some idea of what to research. Maybe put all the info for research from the group's pages on the directions page. Might be clearer. Parent Page-Novice-No parent page Layout-Mastery-Very basic layout and formatting. Its easy to follow but not much flair. Navigation-Experts-Navigation very easy to find and all links worked. This is strength of wikis. Graphics-Novice- No graphics for this site except the ads. Accessibility-Novice- No images so no alt tags. (I did not put any alt tags on my site either) Fonts-Mastery Background-Expert- Consistent use of background and text color made site have unity and clarity. No distractions. Color Choices-Expert- Consistent use of background and text color made site have unity and clarity. No distractions. Spelling and Grammar-Expert- As far as I can tell, not spellos or grammar errors. Copyright-Mastery- I did not see anything that needed copyright statements. Contact Information-Novice- No authorship statements on pages

    Aim/Purpose-Mastery- I see that the purpose is to pay tribute to all great Americans Lesson Plan-Mastery-Very good. Links can all be seen. Student Activity Page- Mastery- Going to the group page can be confusing if students don't go to the directions page first. Parent Page-Novice-No parent page Layout-Mastery- Maybe could have used a collage of picture of the famous americans to be researched. Navigation-Experts-Easy to navigate and all links were accessible Graphics-Novice- No pictures Accessibility-Novice Fonts-Mastery- All fonts were uniform Background-Expert- Use of same backround for the entire webpage. Color Choices-Expert- Consistent with entire webpage. Spelling and Grammar-Expert- Did not see any errors. Copyright-Mastery- Contact Information-Novice- I did not see any contact information, such as an email address or phone number.

    I double checked - using view source to verify the presence of ALT tags - they are there. ALT tags are designed to show when the image does not - my images load up just fine so you won't see the ALT tag unless you view the HTML source.
