Taking notes is a tool I have used in my classroom in attempting to use it as a tool for reinforcement learning.

Standard 2 Design and Develop Digital Age Learning Experiences and Assessment Authentic assessment [] [] []

By using the above web site, I can take each online tool and evaluate its usefulness for the classroom. Using the tools on this page can help to make sure that we are getting the students the correct gauges for assessment and that the online tool will be helpful in the learning process Picnik is a web site in which photos can be uploaded and edited in many different ways in order to enhance a presentation or a project that a student is working on. I looked to assess this on the ability of the student being able to use this web site in order to encourage self direction by managing their projects. The students can ask the following questions by which they use the following questions to track their progress 1. What do I know now about the project I am working on? a. Ask questions of myself to understand what I know. b. I organize the knowledge that I have at the beginning of the project. c. I predict things that I will learn as I do this project. 2. What options are available to me? a. Identify the possibilities that the site makes available to me. b. Identify the different options that I have using this site. c. Make the choice of how to do the project. d. Create opportunities and create different options. 3. What do I need to find out? a. Plan out the research carefully to ensure this site suits my needs. b. In order to make an informed decision, I need to check the site to make sure it has the options I need. 4. How can I set my goals once my intentions for the site are clear? a. Take the information gathered and put them into my own thoughts. b. Taking into account what my project will be - communicate the information to that end. c. Formulate a plan of action. d. Make modifications as issues arise during the project. 5. Where do I go from here? a. Perform an evaluation of the actions I have taken using this site. b. Take what I have learned to create new goals, if necessary. c. Again, based on any new information gained, make modifications to the project, if necessary.

//As we do this lesson we will be making a"Power Point" to show at the end of the school year.

// I do agree with author of “Redefining Rigor”and all the good articles in this lesson. //

// What is critical thinking? Achieving the best possible resolution of questions, as compare to winning arguments for the sake of winning. Our children today must be ready to view education in a whole new area and that is the world of technology .They must know how to ask questions and also take part in a discussion. Technology has allowed for teamwork, but also they need leadership. Project based learning is a natural cue for students critical thinking skills. Keep students on track by framing projects around a driving question. My final plan will deal with choosing Careers in the field of FAMILY CONSUMER SCIENCE The driving question will be which area do I want to pursue .The number of technology tools will be at Their doors-steps such as wikis, computers, web-sites, videos and many more. The children of the 21st century need creativity, ownership, collaboration and real writing plus communication skills for this will help them to gain confidence and feel a true ownership of their master skills. //

The web-site had many informative articles on every topic I could think of .The site is a powerful tool for collaborating with people around the world, but comes with a price ( not an advantage).Teachers and Parents must be members for access. // //Doman Data Digest A site where students can share on thier thoughts or what they are looking at on a blog.// //Bookleads Great place for students to share thoughts with each other.// //Module 2 ..focuses on tools that encourage communication and collabortion on line//.// Social bookmarking forum Standard 2 // // This was a great experience and what a great way to keep track and share important web-sites.

Module 7 [] Online Community I am a member of the Austin Teachers on- line diigo group sharing web-sites and also am part of several learning learning communities on wikispaces.com. I have not joined twitter or facebook and I am not sure if I see a lot of use for this type of learning community .If I have a question and I go to google it in turn it often “links” you to postings that could be helpful without being a member. I have not used on -line learning communities on web-sites, but I do feel they could be very helpful I do use Google.com and it ,too,is very helpful for any thing or situations I need to research. I also belong to the “core teacher.”

Standard 2 Design and Develop Digital Age Learning Experiences and Assessments Module 7 You will investiage and discuss collaborative tools for professional development. [] Discussion of Ideas and Tools Exploration I am always amazed by how many on line tools there are. I have enjoyed exploring some of them. I was not thrill with Twitter and Ning. I do not have a computer at home and since the web- sites are blocked at our school I will not be joining them .The classroom of Family Consumer Science will have access to many other technology tools to explore and will be prepare for the 21st century. One of the sites I did check out this module was Voki. This site is very cool for the fact you can create a representation of yourself. I also looked at Picnik and Slideshow. They both will play a role for in the production for the students final project and the Power Point presentation. Another tool that I found was the go2web20 site This site lists and organizers all of the millions of tools available on line and gives a short description of what you can do there. [] Sharon, Teach with Technology...I enjoyed reading some of the tools you explored and realized that not just the high school level of learning will be touch by the 21st century, but the group of little ones like my 5 year grand-daughter.It blows my mind to think of all the technology devices She will use in her path as a 21st learner. Marylee, Teach with Technology....................This is so true for the21st century.I,too, explored many ,many tools and was amazed how I could them in my Family Consumer Science classes.I feel as teachers we must be very on top of the tool we are using as to not miss inform our direction of the learning experience for the student.

" Twitter is a web-site owned and operated by Twitter Inc.. Yes, it offers social nerworking and microblogging, enabling its users to send messages called tweets.I really can not see the advantages of using this web-site for myself or for my students.I do not have a computer at home and at school the web-site is blocked.I am sure many people enjoy tweets.... but not for me at this point of time

===My Reflection on meeting this standard (So What?)MY GOAL FOR THE COURSE, REPRESENTS DESIGN DEVELOPMENTALLY APPROPRIATE LEARNING THAT APPLY TECHNOLOGY ENHANCED INSTRUCTIONAL STRATEGIESTO SUPPORT THE DIVERSER NEEDS OF LEARNERS.===

===My Future Learning Goals related to this standard (Now What?)===
