Wrapping It Up (Part 1)
Last year I applied to be part of a Set BC provincial project again. This time about Personal and Social education. As a class we used the technology provided to share with others (peers and adults) what makes us unique, find connections with others through identifying our individual characteristics, identify our strengths and potential, and celebrate our efforts and accomplishments. This project involved our class - 24 grade 3 and 4 students.
PROJECT GOALS and ANTICIPATED OUTCOMES:
a) Students will be able to use digital tools to record information related to their individual characteristics and cultural identity.
b) students will be able to use digital tools to create and share information about themselves and our school community with peers and parents in a safe learning environment.
c) Student engagement and access to learning will increase as they exercise voice and choice.
d) Students ability to read and interpret information will increase through the use of digital supports.
e) Students ability to write/record information will increase through sharing information gathered in their own words.
TECHNOLOGY USED:
We used ipads to gather, create and share information about ourselves. The apps and online programs we used were:
a) Book Creator
b) Puppet EDU
c) Do Ink Green Screen
d) Parrot Teleprompter
e) Camera Tool
f) Google Drive
g) Google Classroom
The students learned how to use the accessibility features of the ipad such as text to speech and speech to text.
We also used a pad caster unit which includes a tripod, ipad case, teleprompter, lighting and several microphones and laptops to publish writing using "Word" at the beginning of the school year.
