- Demonstrate fluency in technology systems and the transfer of current knowledge to new technologies and situations.
It is very difficult to promote fluency in technology systems and to then transfer current knowledge to new technologies and situations. Some students don't even have internet at home and some schools don't provide enough funding in order to keep up with high-functioning technology for each of the classrooms. When I'm in the schools, I will make sure that there is always an opportunity to share technological experiences with my students. I could also bring in my iPhone to show them certain apps and educational videos if there aren't any other supplies. I understand that I may have to make additional trips to the computer lab in certain situations in order to incorporate effective technology integration into my future lessons. So far, I have been semi-successful in using technology integrated lessons in the classroom such as with the metric online game. The only problem is that the computers were failing and students weren't getting a chance to work on the game. Technology will fail at times and so I must always have a backup plan ready in advance so that there isn't a disruption in the flow of my lesson.
2. Collaborate with students, peers, parents, and community members using digital tools and resources to support student success and innovation.
I want to be able to create a classroom blog for myself in order for students, parents, peers, and community members to look at it and be able to understand my philosophy of teaching and plans and goals that I have set for the school year. It would be a comfortable setting for conversation between parents and others that are wondering about what my methods entitle and how I can improve in any way that may be beneficial for students based upon their learning styles and/or potential disabilities. I could even add an application to the webpage that would allow private conversation through a message box between me and the parents. I would also include links to academic-based activity sites where students could find intervention and practice through various subjects. This would be a site where I could provide everyone with viable information.
3. Communicate relevant information and ideas effectively to students, parents, and peers using a variety of digital-age media and formats.
I feel that the comment I put under the last statement would be used the same way within this statement. In the webpage I will make, I will be able to post relevant information about various subject matter that parents and students could read into and understand what I want to bring attention to. I will also post instructional videos and online games on the direct site for everyone to use. There will be a variety of materials readily available on the website for teachers and students alike that each can benefit from. Still, some families don't have access to the internet, so I would have to make accommodations in those future situations and have more direct contact with parents so that we can work together as a team in order to provide an effective education for their children.
4. Model and facilitate effective use of current and emerging digital tools to locate, analyze, evaluate, and use information resources to support research and learning.
I understand that there are different multiple intelligence foci for all individual students such as visual/spatial, bodily kinesthetic, naturalists, musical, and auditory learning. I will need to meet those needs of my students so that they are all understanding the content of the lessons. I hope that I can have a SMART board in my classroom so that I can make learning more personal and experiential for my students. I don't want my students to be sitting in chairs all day because I understand that everyone needs to get up and move around in order for the blood to flow back to the brain. I want to use the SMART board as a tool for brain breaks; where students can get up and dance to a video displayed such as Just Dance step-by-step instructional videos. I feel that using digital portfolios for authentic assessment on my students would be the most beneficial tool in order to track their progress.
