Module 4: Evaulation of a Digital Story by Andrea Thompson https://padlet.com/athompson213/7ij40pr9d9ju How do you evaluate the technology component of a digital story? What would a technology integrated project rubric look like? How would the technology vs. content be weighted? Is it always the same ratio? en-us 2018-04-13 12:17:44 UTC 2018-04-13 12:39:27 UTC hello@padlet.com Evaluation athompson213 https://padlet.com/athompson213/7ij40pr9d9ju/wish/251511526  When  evaluating the technology component of a digital story, the teacher must first consider the prior knowledge and skills of the students and the purpose for utilizing a particular device or software program.  

Below is a sample assignment & tech-based rubric I created for the Butterfly Video.  While this rubric does not  include a content piece, I feel that in this assignment, one more section could be added for the student's understanding and presentation of content.]]> 2018-04-13 12:21:54 UTC https://padlet.com/athompson213/7ij40pr9d9ju/wish/251511526 Tech vs. Content Ratio athompson213 https://padlet.com/athompson213/7ij40pr9d9ju/wish/251512505 If the primary goal of the task is for students to demonstrate their understanding of content then the content should be weighted more than the technology. If the primary purpose is getting students to utilize technology in a certain way or demonstrate their skill and ability with the technology then this would have greater weight in an evaluation. Having considered both of these scenarios, I think it's important to continue the conversation regarding how necessary content "regurgitation" is in our current "tech-infused" society. Our students have nearly any content they could ever desire available at their fingertips. So, maybe we should be focused more on the technology side and teaching students how to best use the technology available to them.]]> 2018-04-13 12:24:47 UTC https://padlet.com/athompson213/7ij40pr9d9ju/wish/251512505 Bibliography & Reflections athompson213 https://padlet.com/athompson213/7ij40pr9d9ju/wish/251516663 Below is a link to my annotated bibliography and video reflections.]]> 2018-04-13 12:37:00 UTC https://padlet.com/athompson213/7ij40pr9d9ju/wish/251516663
