Intel Essentials WorkshopShanee Cowland & Frank Kelly
What we discussedProject based learningTools and that can assist learningThe use of essential questions, unit questions
and lesson questionsBlogs, wiki, Edmodo and other collaborative
websites
Workshop GoalGoal was to design a
Unit plan Essentially an
Interdisciplinary Unit
Our chosen interdisciplinary unit idea was based around ‘Technology and Learning’
‘Technology’s role in Collaborative learning’
Visual Representation of the Internet
Things to possibly cover during the unit
How can you search more effectively?
What are the best search engines?
How can you tell that a website is biased?
How can you tell if an author is a credible source?
Why and how can I publish work to exhibit it?
How can I incorporate multimedia?
How can you share information from anywhere?
What can I use to support my learning online?
How can I do labs that are to dangerous to actually do?
How can I visit places that I cant actually visit?
How can I neatly present work in a number of different formats?
Why we thought this would be useful
Explicitly teach correct use of technologyHelp inform students and teachers of web resources
that are availableHelp students discern between biased and factual
information Increase technology literacy throughout the schoolUse technical resources for data analysis and
presentation of informationProducing credible and well formatted
documentation
Aspects of the internet research
Advanced use of search engines
Student focused search
Ways to find credible sources
Bias and how to spot it
Distinguishing between facts and opinions
Web Based Search ToolsGoogle Advanced
Search Narrow down results
by including and excluding terms.
Sweet Search Google based,
academically filtered search
Finding Dulcinea Organize articles for
use by students.
Web Based Tools Google Docs
Alternative to MS Office that allows resources to be shared
You Tube & You Tube for schools,
multimedia video that can be created and viewed
Khan Academy Mathematics, science,
economics and other subject topics explained in concise snippet videos as well as practicing math skills
Skype Collaboration via text, audio
and video
More Web Based Tools PhET Virtual Labs
Science and Math simulations that students can manipulate
Virtual tours of museums and Visits to museums all
over the world including the Louvre.
Animoto Multimedia presentations
that are more exciting than PowerPoint!
Google Hangout Screen share, Video
conference and document sharing
Library of congress Interactive website
with lesson plans and standards
Survey Monkey Hold little online
‘surveys’
Intel Educational Resources
Visual Ranking Tool Allow students to review lists
of information and prioritize, then compare
See Reason Tool Cause and effect flow chart
generator Show Evidence Tool
Allows students to list arguments, organize them into positive and negative and write a thesis based on your arguments.
Assessing Projects Tool Tool for teachers to generate
and use rubrics – that are customizable
It’s a wild ride Roller coaster design project
The Journey Inside Interactive lessons about the
technology.
(Some of the) Core Standards that are Addressed
CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RST.11-12.7
CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RH.6-9=8.7 Integrate visual information (e.g., in charts, graphs, photographs, videos, or maps) with other information in print and digital texts.
CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RI.11-12.7Integrate and evaluate multiple sources of information presented in different media or formats (e.g., visually, quantitatively) as well as in words in order to address a question or solve a problem.
Integrate and evaluate multiple sources of information presented in diverse formats and media (e.g., quantitative data, video, multimedia) in order to address a question or solve a problem.
(Optional) Assessment Prompts
Can students research and evaluate the credibility of authors?
Do students know the meaning of bias and can they recognize it in a web based document?
Can students recognize why commercial websites are less credible than academic or government websites?
Do students know how to validate information on Wikipedia?
(Optional) Assessment Prompts II
Can students chose appropriate tools for technology based assignments?
Do students know how to and do they collaborate via chat, blogs, Skype and other real time interactions?
Can students make, find and use multimedia to present work created.
