Work on small group project.
Each team will be responsible for the development of an instructional packet to suit the
needs of a specific group of students, covering at least 4 lessons.
Collaborative planning time will be included in the class sessions. One write-up of your
team's packet must be submitted with the final presentation during the our last 2 class
sessions. Team members will receive individual grades based on an evaluation by the
instructor as well as their team members. In addition, each team member will receive a
composite grade based on a n evaluation of its oral and written project. There should be
one lesson plan for every participant. Lessons must be targeted to at least one of the
main subject areas (e.g. Language Arts, Science, Math, Social Studies, etc.). The unit of
4-5 lessons should incorporate at least 2 content areas (e.g. Science, Math). The unit
should include a cover page with the names of all the participants. Individual lessons do
not need to be labeled with author's name. The lessons should follow one major
theme and be constructed in such a way that a novice should be able to pick up the
instructional packet and duplicate the lesson. All lessons must incorporate the use
of the Internet and any other technology. The instructional packet must include a
description of the student population, detailed lesson plan, materials, Internet sites,
and method of evaluation. |
