Tehnology Lesson Demonstration

 


            My lesson plan used the standard: “S4L1b. Develop simple models to illustrate the flow of energy through a food web/food chain beginning with sunlight and including producers, consumers, and decomposers” (Georgia Department of Education, 2016). I chose to use Scratch, a website that students can use to create their own code, because this technology fits with the standard of developing a simple model and because coding is a fantastic way to engage students. This would be effective in a lesson because it is an excellent informal assessment and students will have fun applying what they have learned.

Technology allows for multiple modes of instruction and for various ways for students to show what they have learned and express themselves. For instance, Roblyer and Hughes in “Integrating Educational Technology into Teaching” from 2019 discuss UDL (Universal Design for Learning). They talk about multiple means of representation and multiple means of expression. Multiple means of representation are different ways to teach students the information that they need to learn. Some students learn more visually while others may learn with reading or doing. Multiple means of expression are ways that students can show what they have learned. Some students may do better with a choice, such as writing an essay in word, or recording a skit and posting it to a class site. Roblyer and Hughes, 2019, say that personalized instruction is...
