I have met this standard by designing a lesson plan or topic to learn about using WebQuest. Using this site was a great way of creating an activity for any grade level. It was designed for a 10th grade history class. The lesson plan/activity was created through Google sites. I have the ability to apply technology of the standard-based instructions. I have met this standard by helping students increase technology achievement through the Smart Notebook. Although the lesson plan was created for an elementary age group it helped define achievement though activities and games where each student could learn how to use a SmartBoard, while still learning a basic lesson in a subject of school. I have the ability to increase student achievement through technology by using this resource. I have met this standard by managing to use a program called digital story telling where I created a lesson on the types of Volcanoes and how they formed. Using this program through technology helped communicate information in a well organized manner of pictures and writing to where a student was easily able to understand what was being taught and had clears ideas of information within the context. In have the ability to utilize technology to manage and communicate information to students within the classroom. I have met this standard by using a rubric within the assignment and topic of WebQuest. Through this rubric I was able to establish several categories where each student was to follow in how to set up a WebQuest. Each had to meet a certain standard under each category. Each category consisted of 4 points that needed to be met. I have the ability to apply data-driven assessments of learning within the classroom. I have met this standard by showing students the various amount of tools with in Web 2.0. Many tools were explained and shown that they could either succeed within a classroom or could fail in the process of learning. Basic technology skills were assessed as well and shown that they could create problems in learning them or could be a good resource to use to help students learn. I have the ability to instruct students in basic technology skills.
