Question Response:
I think topics such as IReady and Lexia should be covered in this class because they are so prevalent in classrooms now a days. I would like to know how these sites look/work from a teachers perspective.

I think that it would be super cool to explore digital gaming in this class since I know that is a big thing nowadays for most students. I wonder if there could be a way that you could make a game in scratch... I know we did that with the math games, but if there could be a way we make a game and have step by step instructions, but design our won characters... or make a small version out of it. I am not sure if it is possible but I think it would be very cool and different.

I think it would’ve been interesting to learn how to incorporate other technology like video games into the classroom. For example, some more interactive games would be really fun to learn. At my field study this semester, the students were playing on this online website called GimKit, which they absolutely loved. It basically combined questions with any popular game and there were ways to play something similar to Animal Crossing or Among Us while still learning. Students love to play online and are exposed to so many things at home, and bringing them to the classroom would be a cool way to keep them engaged.

Just realized I kept saying technology module 2 instead of 3 in my video!

I think in this class it would be interesting to learn more about specific games or programs that are currently being used in elementary classrooms and that ar built in and expected to be incorporated into lessons based off the curriculums. I also think it would be useful to learn different teacher websites that have engaging games or that can be used as helpful tools in our future classroom once we leave QU.

Hi Arianna! I love the idea of using legos I think that would be super engaging! I also did a read aloud for mine! I think something else that could be covered in this lesson would be to have the students build their lego design on an online program after building the physical model out of legos using a program such as Minecraft or another building game. I think your video and powerpoint is great and you did a great job!

Hi Holly! I love the topic of your tech module! I think the videos you picked are really great and will be great in the classroom! The diagrams you picked are also very great visuals that the students will really enjoy! The DIY model if a super cute idea for a lesson and will be very impactful due to it being hands-on! Great job!

Hi Angelina! I choose a read aloud for my tech module too! I really like the story you choose and think it could be super great for a lesson! I also really like the style of your powerpoint. I also agree that it would be interesting to learn about incorporating video games into the classroom due to many students playing video games in their free time at home. Great job!

Hi Julia! I think that this is a super fun and exciting STEM challenge. I feel like the students would have such a great time with trying to create these figures. I can already hear the students thrills and laughs in the class. I love how you included a Minion gif and that it emphasized collaborative work in the class. I love how you included the five "5's of website evaluation" because that it is such an important part of finding critical resources that they will eventually have to use and find when they are older.

Hi Alyssa! I love how you did a read aloud in your lesson (I did too)! I think this book and the lesson is so cute. I love how we can incorporate English and STEM lessons together. I liked how you pointed out that the images were going to be bigger on the board so everyone will be able to see as well as the voice being a different one. I liked how you mentioned that you could make internet saftey into another lesson and that it honestly needs to be put in another lesson because of it's importance.

Hi Holly! I love this idea! This reminds me of the dance we did in our Art class last year. I love this idea because this is something that students see everyday. This would be a great lesson to do during the spring time. I love the equity used in this lesson plan using the plain piece of paper and the paper clip!

Hi Arianna, I love how you used legos for the lesson because it's such an open ended way to create a building! This lesson seems so engaging and I love how fun the gifs are. Also, I agree that adding a game online would be a good way to incorporate technology in the classroom. I also mentioned on mine how students love video games at home and so bringing them to teaching would keep them excited to learn. Overall, I think you did a great job on your powerpoint and video! -Angelina Sangiovanni

Hi Holly, I really love this lesson! This reminded me a lot of what we were learning in science methods with our dandelion activity and it's interesting to see a similar adaptation in your lesson. I especially loved how well this connects to content curriculum in science. The websites you linked seem like a great hands-on activity to help students create a visual model for learning. I can already imagine students being overly excited to see mac and cheese and utilizing it in one of the lessons you described. I think if you did this lesson in the spring time, you could even take the children outside to look at flowers and bees and watch pollination in action! Great job! -Angelina Sangiovanni

Hi Alyssa, I also did a read aloud STEM challenge for my technology module! We had the same graphic organizer which lets students effectively plan and create their design on paper before actually building. In my field study last year, the teacher did something similar with a read aloud on the board, and the students loved it. The pictures were nice and big for all the students to see and it was super engaging. Also, I agree that internet safety is essential to teach in schools. Students are always online nowadays and the dangers are so apparent that we need to keep children away from them. Overall, great job! -Angelina Sangiovanni

I think more of a variety of topics would be good to cover in this class, instead of spending multiple weeks on the same concept. It would give us more things to tuck away for our future classrooms!

I think another thing that should be covered in this class is the teacher's perspective, and websites and resources we can use for our own benefits and to be able to better help our students. I also think it would be interesting to talk about why we are doing some of the experiments we are doing, rather than just doing them.

I would love to see more of how different pieces of technology can be used to teach science! I have seen in my field study many online programs that help students with math, but I have not seen many that work on science, so I was wondering what the most beneficial online tools are to work on science topics.

I think it would be interesting to learn about the current technology tools being used in school for students. Within field study, the students spend a majority of class time on their computer practicing on sites that help them engage and practice math or reading. It would be interesting to do any activity that we had to put our self in the pov of the student and see how these sites are benefiting students, if we would want to include something similar in our classroom or make our own "website" that would help students practice and engage in science independently on their own.

Hi Emily, I like how you started your lesson with exercises we have done within our science and primary grades course. Having the students first think about what they know helps them to realize through the lesson even more and expand their thinking. I also think a great way to extend this lesson would be to use a DQB or DBQ? I forget which is which but just a thought!

# data[].attributes.body
Hey Julia, I remember doing a lesson similar to this when I was in elementary school. This is a great lesson to keep kids engaged and motivated in their learning. I like that your video emphasizes why it is important for the students to learn the use of stem in class. I also thought that collaboration was another important aspect to help students build off each others ideas. They also practice SEL skills!

# data[].attributes.body
Hi Alyssa, I also thought it would interesting to learn about the current technology, programs, and online sources schools are using. Your gifs were so fun! I actually loved the way you structured this lesson because I had thought of doing a similar activity that I wrote up for a previous assignment in this class! I believe it was based off the audio book we did, so if you were to ever use a lesson like this, you could actually utilize audio books :) as a way to introduce the topic and incorporate technology into the classroom!

Hi Arianna! I think having a hands on activity is great idea! Hands-on activities often allow students to work together and foster teamwork skills. These types of activities can also improve cognitive understanding of the subject material and social skills (or SEL) like you mentioned. Practicing fine motor skills is also super important especially for younger kids. I further like your idea for this class in the future of learning about online gaming. Overall I love the lesson, great job! - Holly Montick

Hi Emily! I really like how you incorporated a KWL chart. They engage students and help them recall knowledge. They can also be used to track ones learning progress. The cloud game sounds so cute! Kids love playing online games! I also like how your experiment is conducted in groups. This will help to develop collaboration/teamwork skills. It also allows them to hear input/ideas from others. Overall great job! - Holly Montick

Hi Bailey! Asking questions is a super important topic, especially in science class. Questions stimulate discussion and creative and critical thinking. Asking questions can also determine how a student is thinking for a teacher. I like your scientific method chart. I think it would be great as an anchor chart in a classroom. Having your kahoot based on the read-a-loud emphases comprehension skills which is also important. Overall great job! - Holly Montick

What other technology or topics do you think should be covered in this class?

One thing I think should be covered through this course are the different technology resources/tools outside google technology; websites in content areas (ex. IReady, IXL, etc…). Through my field study experience plus nowadays, students are using more technology in the classroom. Familiarizing ourselves with various websites within content areas would be beneficial when we are in the classroom.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that this class should introduce us and teach us how to use certain programs such as iReady and Clever that students and teachers utilize to submit assignments, work on certain skills that students need a little more help with, and track progress. I have seen these programs, along with several others, being utilized within my field study classrooms. While I may know their purpose, I am unsure of how to use these programs or when to implement them. I think that doing work with these universally used programs would have proved to be beneficial for all of us as future educators.

Something I think we should cover in this class is how to teach students what websites are truthful and what websites are not. I think it is easy to just say "make sure you check your sources" but actually teaching students what that means is very important. To us seeing a website that doesn't look legit is easy, but to kids they may not know so maybe just teaching us how to teach that to our students.

Hi Molly! I think the questions you included in your Kahoot were cute and I also enjoyed the little Gif you included, even if it wasn't moving during your presentation. I think you chose a good topic that was easy to translate into a technology lesson. Great work!

# data[].attributes.body
Hi Alyssa! I think it was really smart to do an audio book read aloud, this is the perfect way to incorporate technology into your daily classroom routine. I loved the book you chose and I thought that your little gif was super cute. If I was a student, I would definitely enjoy all aspects of your tech-friendly lesson. Good job!

I think for this class the best thing we covered was scratch. I think more examples of coding being implemented in a classroom and how kids can code themselves would be beneficial.
