      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. Remember instructional strategies are not your contents or "technologies," such as wiki, discussion board etc. It is the integrated soft technologies.

    Tracy Robbins Review This website adheres to the principals stated below. What a great way to involve the children in weather concepts. The parent activities look to be a lot of fun. Lesson plan is very good. I like the addition of a discussion page for students and parents to collaborate. Aim/Purpose - (expert) home page accurately describes what the intention of the website is and the goal for the webpage. Lesson Plan - (mastery) The lesson plan link is easy to find and load quickly and properly Student Activity Page - (expert) Several choices of sites to go to for the students and each link describes what the students will be learning at that site. Parent Page - (expert) Great activities to assist the parents in getting involved in the learning. Layout - (expert) organized and easy to use. Navigation - (expert) Easy to navigate around each individual page and throughout the webpage. Graphics - (expert) Pictures match content. Good use of pictures to pre-assess learning. Accessibility - (mastery) images do not have alt tag that describes the image in detail. They do, however, list "weather" as a tag. Fonts - (expert) good use of various fonts to enhance the webpage and they are easily readable and appropriate. Background - (expert) Backgrounds are consistent throughout the site. Whitespace allows the reader to focus on the text. Color Choices - (expert) good. Do not distract from the content and message. Spelling and Grammar - (expert) no errors noticed. Copyright - (expert) looks good to me Appears that most pictures were taken from clipart and those that were not are marked with webaddress. References are sited. Contact Information - (expert) All contact information is posted at the bottom of the webpages.

    Tracy, You indicated: "Accessibility - (mastery) images do not have alt tag that describes the image in detail. They do, however, list "weather" as a tag. " Great observations! How about universal design?

    Misty, I really enjoyed the lesson on weather. I was just a little confused about the KidPix part of the lesson since I couldn't find it in the student activities pages. I can believe this would be a great lesson for the students and the Parent activities were great. Great job!! Virginia Aim/Purpose -- The entry page tells what the Aim/Purpose of the lesson is to the student - Mastery Lesson Plan - Link to the lesson plan is included and it works -- Mastery Student Activity Page -- The student activity pages describe learning activities in age appropriate language. The rubric is for a lesson on KidPix, but I didn't see anything in the student activities for KidPix. Copies of grading rubrics are available. - Mastery. Parent Page -- Parent page includes creative ideas for engaging students at home. Really creative ideas. I thought the idea of reading the book and making a cake was great, also making the cloud in a jar was cool. - Expert Layout -- The wiki page is very nicely laid out. The graphics on the first page are an interesting start. I especially like the layout on the Parent page. The layout on the student activity page looks shifted to the right, but otherwise all the pages were well done. -- Expert Navigation -- All links are clearly marked and go where you expect to go. All of the links worked -- Expert Graphics -- The graphics used related to the topic and enhanced the instruction. --Expert Accessibility -- Images have ALT tags. -- Expert Fonts - The use of fonts is consistent and easy to read. The point size varies from heading to text and bold and underline is used appropriately. -- Expert Background -- The background is exceptionally attractive and consistent across the pages. It adds to the theme and purpose of the lesson. - Expert. Color Choices -- Colors of background, fonts, unvisited and visited links were all pleasing. They did not detract from the content and were consistent across the website. - Expert. Spelling & Grammar -
