CO-PBST 7 Reflections

- I was able to meet this standard by learning how to apply technology to daily classroom lesson that met the Colorado teaching standards. I did this with smart board by creating a 50-minute lesson plan for 8th grade social studies class.
 * 7.1 Apply technology to the delivery of standards-based instruction**

- I was able to meet this standard by creating a webquest lesson plan. Web quest is an interactive website that teachers can use to create a student driven project. This allows for students to complete research on their own and in an interactive, engaging and innovative way.
 * 7.2 Use technology to increase student achievement**

- I was able to meet this standard by creating a digital storytelling program. I was able to place together a timeline of the holocaust and place it in a visual movie to provide details of the lesson I wanted to provide. I voice the digital movie, just as a normal lesson would be the movie provides visual pictures and texts for students to see.
 * 7.3 Utilize technology to manage and communicate information**

- I have met his standard by creating a rubric-based assignment through my webquest project. The rubric was a data-driven check of the research and projects students were able to complete. The rubric acts as an assessment of the students success in the standard based content provided in the lesson.
 * 7.4 Apply technology to data-driven assessments of learning**

- I met this standard by researching and finding a variety of Web 2.0 tools. These tools are not only interactive in technology but also provide new ways for technology to be used in a classroom setting. The varieties of interactive computer programs available through Web 2.0 are easy to understand and implement into classroom lesson plans making me skilled enough to instruct students in basic technology skills.
 * 7.5 Instruct students in basic technology skills**
