Blog for Tuesday 16th

When I was in kindergarten I was enrolled in a program called Writing to Read. The program involved the use of computer software, familiarity with a keyboard, and one one reading instruction to promote better reading skills. The ISTE standard met by this program was 2-b: Writing to Read developed a technology-enriched environment that enabled all students to pursue their individual curiosities and become active participants in setting their own educational goals, managing their own learning, and assessing their own progress.

Day 6, February 4th

Today we skyped a question and answer session with 5th graders wherein we gave them advice on writing an autobiography. The ISTE standard met by the video ocnference was 3C. We communinicated relevant information and ideas efectively to students using a variety of digital age media and formats.

Day 5, February 2

Today we used google docs to create two question surveys. We then took the results of the surveys, fed the data through Graphbuilder.com, created a graph and posted our results on blogger. This exercise proved most stimulating to the imagination. I can now use google docs as a means of creating online quizes and in conjuntcion with a graph construction softwarre post results to said quizes. This facilitates ISTE standard 2C because I can now customize and personalize a learning activity so as to address a student's diverse learning style, working strategy, and ability to use digital tools and resources.
