Learning Objectives
Objective four: Learners will use an online media tool to create a guide to the responsibilities and dangers of digital participation for a public audience according to the rubric with 90 percent accuracy.
This objective has learners operating at the highest level of Bloom's revised taxonomy, Creating. There are potential dangers to digital participation. Chances for identity theft increase, chances of your computer or online accounts being hacked increase, and even social emotional issues. As a teacher, it is my job to make sure that my learners operate on the internet safely, effectively, efficiently, and ethically. This activity will have students researching in teams and creating a guide that should help make the information crystallize in their own minds while providing a valuable service for others. These digital guides then should be shared for peer assessment and then finalized so as to be used back in a teacher's classroom as a teaching tool for their learners or shared some how with the community at large.
I have included a checklist that I developed to help students put together their guide: http://pblchecklist.4teachers.org/view.php?id=378646
The rubric that I will use to assess the guide can be downloaded below.
Tool: Slide Rocket, Prezi, YouTube, Visual.ly, SlideShare, VoiceThread, websites, Zoho Show, Glogster. The opportunities are endless.
Potential Challenges: Deciding on what tool would be the best fit for the information being presentation. Getting too involved in the technology. Trying to use something sophisticated to do something simple. Again, the issue of teacher control. Teachers may have to step in to help with a tool that they are unfamiliar with.
Strengths: Provides for high levels of creativity, differentiation, and individual comfort levels with technology. Teachers and learners both benefit from learning from each other in a reciprocal relationship.
