Integrating technology into the Maths and Science Classroom - Time to Practice!

You are going to use the Tiered Lesson Plan below to practice one of the pedagogical frameworks using a website for both maths and science based on the level that you teach. This is intended to be self-directed but please raise your hand if you require assistance. You can find links to the websites below at http://weebly.todworkshops.com

Learning Objectives:
Integrate technology into math and science lessons using new technological tools

Success Criteria
List three pedagogical frameworks for integrating technology Apply one theory using a new technological tool for an upcoming lesson

Learning Intention 1.Website for Maths

Apply the POE model to math and science lessons using websites
Go to one of these websites and select any activity. Try it. How could you apply POE to the activity? 1.http://www.mathplayground.com/math_manipula tives.html select your age group preference first, then select an activity OR 2. http://www.ixl.com/ select your age group preference first, then select an activity

Apply the TGEM model to a science and math lesson

Go to one of these websites and select any activity. Try it. How could you apply TGEM to the activity? 5. http://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulations/category/math select one of the simulations and upload if needed. Once it is ready be sure to generate a prediction before you start. You can also view teaching resources. OR 6.http://www.explorelearning.com/index.cfm?method=cResource.dspResourc eCatalog login: username-aectoc, password-123456 -select one of the science gizmos for your age group- you will have only 5 minutes to view it, make sure you Generate a prediction before you start! 7. http://wise4.berkeley.edu/webapp/index.html **see below for more details OR 8. www.pbs.org/wgbh/buildingbig/lab/index.html -select one of the labs and generate a prediction BEFORE you Evaluate it, then modify your prediction if you were incorrect

Apply the LfU model to a science and math lesson using technology
Go to one of these websites and select any activity. Try it. How could you apply LfU model to the activity? 9.http://www.explorelearning.com/index.cfm?method=cResource.dspReso urceCatalog select one of the science gizmos for your age group- you will have only 5 minutes to view it, make sure you Generate a prediction before you start! OR 10. http://www.mathplayground.com/math_manipulatives.html select Year 7 or 8 and then select one of the skills- how could you use this with LfU model? 11. http://www.explorelearning.com/index.cfm?method=cResource.dspResour ceCatalog select one of the math gizmos for your age group- you will have only 5 minutes to view it, make sure you Generate a prediction before you start! OR 12. http://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulations/category/new select one of the sciences on the left side and then select a simulation http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/aso/tryit/dna/ and try the DNA workshop activity

3.http://www.edheads.org/activities/simplemachines/index.shtml Click to start the game, it may take a minute to load, once it does you can chose an activity (ie. kitchen, tool shed etc.) and then follow the directions OR 4. http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/scienceclips/ages/5_ 6/science_5_6.shtml select one of these simulations and think how to incorporate POE here

Assessment

(Success Criteria)

Use the lesson plan to create a lesson for your students using this approach and this technology. If you have finished writing your lesson, please go back to the websites you visited and explore them further. What other topics could you use them for?
