I found this assignment very frustrating. We had to go to prezi.com and create a new type of presentation. I watched the tutorial even tried to find additional help, but couldn't not grasp the functionality of the program. I did the best I could but every time I clicked show, it didn't look right. So to view my prezi online click here. This assignment could be useful if I master it in a classroom for just about anything. It is similar to powerpoint, but does away with the linear structure. So it would be really good for use in science, or literature where flow charts and diagrams can be used.
3. Model Digital-Age Work and Learning
Teachers exhibit knowledge, skills, and work processes representative of an innovative professional in a global and digital society. Teachers:
a. demonstrate fluency in technology systems and the transfer of current knowledge to new technologies and situations
d. model and facilitate effective use of current and emerging digital tools to locate, analyze, evaluate, and use information
resources to support research and learning
This technology is very new, and from what I read it can't be saved to your computer, and can't upload powerpoint slides other than images. This assignment allowed us to transfer current knowledge about presentational tools to new technology, and we used this emerging tool to present information.
2. Design and Develop Digital-Age Learning Experiences and Assessments
Teachers design, develop, and evaluate authentic learning experiences and assessments incorporating contemporary tools and resources to maximize content learning in context and to develop the knowledge, skills, and attitudes identified in the NETS•S. Teachers:
a. design or adapt relevant learning experiences that incorporate digital tools and resources to promote student learning and creativity
b. develop technology-enriched learning environments that enable all students to pursue their individual curiosities and become active participants in setting their own educational goals, managing their own learning, and assessing their own progress
c. customize and personalize learning activities to address students’ diverse learning styles, working strategies, and abilities using digital tools and resources
Because the instructions on this assignment were very vague it allowed us as students to use our own creativity, also allowed us to assess our own progress, because the format is so versatile our presentation could look very different from examples provided, and lastly this activity addressed our abilities using digital tools and resources, because not only were we using this very new type of presentation, but also had to know to save power point slides as images, or use the snipping tool, and how to embed our presentation into our blog. This assignment definitely touched on a lot of substandards.
