*Collaboration- all the students can come together to work on a common project
*Technology tools- students were accessing materials and resources towards the project
*Web-based tools- students were able to use different online programs such as drop box and the cloud to share information
*Information literacy- the teacher and students discussed proper ways to use the internet and internet tools safe and effectly
*Evidence-based opportunities- the students have access to multiple different types of tools to help form their argument for the project.  They can search web based articles, tests, etc (Hale, 2015, p.121). ]]> 2017-08-08 21:14:48 UTC https://padlet.com/bngeohagan/h0fx5fzv1kty/wish/180414465 bngeohagan https://padlet.com/bngeohagan/h0fx5fzv1kty/wish/180415652 Alber, R.

Megacognition is where students can plan, organize and monitor their work. This allows them to be in charge of their own projects, kind of like them being the teacher. I feel this goes hand in hand with the project discussed in chapter 11with various projects being completed. They could use the metacognition strategies put together and incoorporate the drop box and or the cloud storage for further technology tool usage (Alber, 2017). ]]> 2017-08-08 21:49:35 UTC https://padlet.com/bngeohagan/h0fx5fzv1kty/wish/180416942
