4th Grade Technology Integration
You will find that technology is used in a variety of ways within the
classroom
for each subject area. Our school designs our technology
curriculum
around the National Educational Technology
Standards
for Students
.
Through a graduate class taken at the University of Illinois, Champaign-Urbana, I have put
together a curriculum
map which outlines some of the various means of
technology used
in my classroom. In addition, I have created an online
research
project which centers around Pioneer
Living and
Westward Movement. Students
can find directions to some homework related assignments online such as
creating a Tall
Tale. In Social Studies, students have in the past helped
collaborate
on a regional
online project. In math we use technology resources
such as
calculators, data collection probes,videos, and software for
problem-solving,
self-directed learning, data collection, and extended learning
activities.
Some tools used are Inspiration, Cornerstone, Tom Snyder's Fizz and
Martina, Timeliner, and Math Workshop. For further
technology
searching and ideas that may find their way into our classroom, please
