Discussion on the items that should be considered before starting a project with students
The items that should be considered before starting a project are the access to technology. It is important that teachers provide access and expand knowledge on technology to start a project. Another thing to consider is access to experts to answer questions. Students need to engage with experts because they can provide information that is relevant to the project. Other experts and specialist can also be helpful when starting a project. They can help students discrete skills. Dividing responsibilities is something to consider before starting a project because you learn individuals strengths and how they can help strengthen the project.
Discussion on teachers and students management needs
Some of teachers' project management needs include tools for communicating with students and others about the project, methods for getting resources for students, structures that support a productive learning environment, and assessment tools and strategies. Some of student project-management needs include methods for seeking assistance, collaboration tools, and ways to get and use feedback on their work. Theses needs help start and finish a project and focus on technology.
Discuss some of the technology applications that should be considered for use in a project
Some of the technology applications that should be considered for use in a project are a wiki because it connects with others and helps students learn from different resources. Another technology application is a blog, because it helps communicate progress and milestones. Drupal and Textpatterns is a technology application that provides web collaboration.
Discussion on how concepts in this chapter relate to your topic/project
This chapter relates to our topic, staying healthy, because it provides information needed to start a project. We gave responsibilities to each group member so that our group can do well on assignments. We also use Web applications like a blog, to connect with others and show our progress.
I really liked how you talked about a few different technology types that you can use while doing a project. I think it is important to have a few different options of technology and makes things more fun and interesting while creating something! I think this class is helping us explore those uses and will carry over into our future careers! Great job :)
ReplyDeleteNice job breaking up the roles of the teacher and students when managing a project. I think student management also means learning how to manage time, which will really benefit students in the future. Really nice job on keeping it simple and effective.
