Course Work

Technology either has to be invented or adopted.

Introducing... The Teacher

This PowerPoint presentation serves as a digital introduction to the teacher - ME! I envision this playing on an interactive whiteboard in my classroom during an open house/meet-the-teacher night. This information would then be available on my website as parent resource throughout the school year.

StAIR (Stand Alone Instructional Resource) Project

This is a stand alone instructional resource on the water cycle. Power Point is used for students to explore the basic concepts of the water cycle through exploring slides. Content description and a quiz are the basis of this resource. This serves as a fun and interactive way to teach students about the water cycle.

Digital Footprint

A digital footprint is a collection of activities and behaviors recorded when an entity (such as a person) interacts in a digital environment. It may include the recording of activities such as system login and logouts, visits to a web-page, accessed or created files, emails and chat messages. It'll teach students to be very conscious of where they go and what they do with technology/on the internet.
