Technology Lesson Plan

http://www.box.net/shared/ghfmitd87n

- I was fortunate enough to include technology in my lesson. i am going to have the students use a video camera to videotape themselves making a 5 minute workout video that the class will participate in.
- Technology will change the learning enviorment because it would no longer have the students sitting in a class room they will be up and moving around. this lesson is more learner centered because it is all about the students, it is up to them to finish the assignment. they also have more control over what they do with the camera bacuase it is up to them.
- One problem that could happen is the students would goof around to much and maybe not get to much work done. but i think it is such a fun project that the students will try to do their best.
- The NETS that this lesson covers are
1. creativity and Innovation- students will demonstrate creative thinking in coming up with there video

2. communication and collaboration- students will use digital media and work collaboratively. they will be using a video camera and learn how to use the video camera in the process

k12 conference

the session that i listen to was about reflection. the main point of the session was about reflecting on what we are teaching and if we are doing a good job. especially about technology, he made the point that when you are reflecting on your teaching make sure you are doing a good job. if you are teaching with technology and doing a bad job then you need to change, and if you dont use technology and you cannot get the attention of the students then you might need to think about using technology. dont be ashamed to admit you made a mistake and change if you need to. reflection is a good thing, and more teachers should take to practicing it.

The Internet is Bad

there is a lot of problems that kids can get into over the Internet. the Internet is so full of bad and dangerous things that it can sometimes be scary. when it comes to boys i know they like to search different topics just to be funny, and some of those searches can involve inappropriate things. cyber bullying is becoming a big problem, kids are getting bullied over sites like myspace. they just get made fun of via myspace and in some cases their is some severe damage to the kids. Internet per editors are becoming more dangerous and that is a scary thing. their are a lot of good things about the Internet, but thanks to stupid people in the world their are things about the Internet are dangerous

Internet Resources

Disabilities

in my class their will always be some child who has some sort of disability. the more information i have on disabilities the better i will be able to accommodate and help these children in my class. the Internet is full of information and it would be a bad move on my part not to be educated in these areas for the children.

Fitness

children have lost the will to be fit. with computers, video games, television kids are spending far to many hours inside sitting down. kids don't know what it means to be fit anymore, did you know just 45 minutes a day is all you need to stay fit and in good shape. children need to start young in gaining a lifestyle of fitness, and if i can educate myself and my students in the area of physical fitness then i will be going my job

Nutrition

nutrition goes hand and hand with fitness you can achieve good physical fitness without good eating habits. again the best time to establish good eating habits to my kids is during these young years. their is no reason why kids cant start eating right young. McDonald's is bad for adults just imagine what it does to a younger smaller kids, ill tell you its nothing good. their is a lot of information out their to help me teach my students about good eating habits.

Fun Games

one way to get my students active is to introduce fun games for them to take home and play. by using all the information the Internet has to offer i will be able to teach my students fun games for them to take home and play with their friends. i can also publish the websites that i use so they can look up the games on their own.

Local Sports Teams

it is always good to support your local sports team and get kids interested in sports. if i wanted to make the students do a report on a local sports team these would be great resources for them to use.
