For week two I learned how to make a google survey, see the results of the survey, make a movie, and a podcast. The ISTE Standards that I have fulfilled are:
1. Facilitate and Inspire Student Learning and Creativity
2. Design and Develop Digital-Age Learning Experiences and Assessments
3. Model Digital-Age Work and Learning
5. Engage in Professional Growth and Leadership
Students can make podcasts and movies, and that would inspire their creativity. It would also help boost learning. These experiences could be for a grade and shown to others, so that is how it fulfills numbers two and three. This meets standard number five, because we can always be growing and improving. If we do not grow professional then we will not be good teachers. The more time goes on the more technology will become important, and it is our job as teachers to incorporate this into our classrooms. The use of technology should be beneficial and improve student achievement.
A google survey could be taught to the class, and then have students make their power point to reflect the data. It could help in math by reading charts and graphs. The podcasts and movie could be done by students to show something they learned, and be used as a way to demonstrate it to the class.
In the paragraphs above, I have given examples to how this could be used in class, and listed the standards that the assignments met. I think these tools would be tremendous assets to teachers if they were used in the right way, and be great for professional development. Students would probably enjoy these assignments, and learn more because they enjoyed it.
