Module 5: Theories and Principles in the Use and Design of Technology Driven-Lessons

Lesson 4: Models of Technology-Enhanced Instructional Lessons

STARTING ACCURATELY (INTRODUCTION)

Lesson Introduction

The conventional way of teaching in the century may outmode the

preference of the present learners. The teacher providing the information while
taking the center stage may not hold students' attention for a longer time. This
still works, however, but with the appropriate use of the right technology tool or
application, a lesson becomes engaging.
The roles that learners play in this millennium are no longer limited to being a
reciever of information. They desire to be actively involved in the retrieval of
information, repackaging them to create something unconcievable before.

Intended Outcome/Learning Objectives

1. Identified how a technology tool is integrated in a lesson.

2. Evaluated a simple lesson with the element of technology integration
and suggested how it can be enhanced.

3. If you are going to teach, select one output that you want your own students to
do after a lesson.
4. What instructional materials or digital tools will you use toguide your students?
Discuss your answer with your team members. Share your ideas tothe big
class.

INCULCATING CONCEPTS (INPUT/LESSON PROPER)

The learning place can also evolve especially when you consider
the varied roles that learners play. They can learn and perform
the task in any physical or virtual location. There is also the element of flexibility
since learners can tackle assigned tasks at preferred times or manners of doing
them. However, certain agreed rules have to be established to provide the right
amount of guidance without curtailing their ingenuity.

Learners can become:

Contributors - learners can upload materials such as a video or an audio, post a

message, submit an output in a dropbox or add documents and eBooks and
add a picture or contribute to a digital world using a "popup".

Creators - students can collate a digital portfolio or commonly known as an

ePortfolio or create a virtual poster or an interactive resource. They can
produce a digital story, edit the entries and share.

Communicators - using technology tools, students can chat with peers, post a
reply in a blog and contribute a comment to a let thread flow. Creating a wiki,
editing and adding to it gives the students the chance to communicate their
thoughts. Using the chat room or the Web Conferencing by Skype creates a
dynamic to what a learning place is.

Collaborators - Capstone projects can be outputs of collaboration. Students can

participate in posting ideas in a Forum where there can be an asynchronous
discussion. Using wikis to participate in group work with the aim to
accomplish a task or a comment on blogs are few ways on performing the
role of a collaborator in a new idea of a learning place.

There are many great ideas on how to integrate a technological tool or

application in teaching a lesson. Identifying the possible role that students need
to be can guide them to choose the appropriate way of using the right tool. The
bottomline is for you to integrate technology because learners become engaged
and they can learn better hence, a well-integrated phase of technology is critical.

One common tool is a mobile device. It is a computing gadget such as a
smartphone or a tablet computer that can be handheld and carried along by the
user. If this tool is available, a creative teacher can strategize the meaningful use
of mobile phone as a way of engaging the learners.
Tools must be used as fundamental components of a class as long as they
are appropriate and strategically integrate to facilitate learning for the integration
of technology in a lesson is an informed judgement of a qualified and innovative
teacher.

UPGRADING COMPETENCE (ENRICHMENT PHASE)

BLOGS - one interesting tool to explore is the blog. It is a webpage that you need
to create and where you can write and post your ideas. These are updated on a
regular basis which can inspire or educate those who read it. It is an online
journal that allows you to share with the world what you think or feel.
There are many kinds of blog and the type will depend on the purpose for
which it is created. Quality of content is crucial in making your blog attractive to
readers. Blogging provides benefits and one of which is it allows you to improve
your writing skills. Just in case you will start creating your own blog, explore
Wordpress. It is a blogging platform.

On the web…

A. Research on the differences between WordPress.org and Word-Press.com for

both may look similar but serve different functions.

WordPress.org WordPress.com

B. Using Canva or an appropriate tool, create an infographic that reflects the

differences between the two.

If you want to know more about WordPress you can find out by
researching on the net.
Once you know a digital tool or an application, the next step is tothink how
you can use the tool when teaching a lesson in your class.
Module 5: Theories and Principles in the Use and Design of Technology Driven-Lessons
Lesson 4: Models of Technology-Enhanced Instructional Lessons
WORDPRESS - an online, open source website creation tool
- the easiest and most powerful blogging and website content management
system in existence today
- is an excellent website platform for a variety of websites, from blogging to e-
commerce to business and portfolio websites

Once you know a digital toolor an application, the next step is to think how
you can use the tool when teaching a lesson in your class.

1. Blogging Ideas
a. Reflect on Reading. Using blogs, post your reflections on a book that you
are assigned to read.
b. Picture Prompt. Post a blog on your reflection based on a picture. Students
can be given a word limit in writing a creative piece or an idea.
c. Stat! Given a limited, students post their interpretation of a statistical data
provided in class. This can be a homework assigned to them.
d. DreamOn! In a social studies class, students can post about their dream
destinations by describing the culture, the people and the scenic spots.
Pictures can be added to enliven the posts.

2. Web-Conferencing Tools
a. Expert Guest Practitioner. Invite somebody who is an expert in a particular
field into a web conference(e.g. Skype).
b. Share and Compare. Using web-conferencing, data from a science
investigation can be shared to other groups or students from other schools.
c. Mediated Tutorial. Through web-conferencing, learners can set a time for a
tutorial session with an assigned peer. A variation can be a mediated
tutorial by a teacher through any of the web-conferencing tools for
teachers(e.g. Skype, FB messenger, Meeting Brunner, GoToMeeting,
Yugma, WebEx, etc.)

PADLET- is another tool that can be accessed online and suited for sharing
information or content and can allow engagement of students. Although it can be
used for business but with creativity, it can be appropriate for eduactional
purposes.

*Note:
One important step to select a tool is to study it and its functions.
Identifying which one will work for your class while having in mind the main
purpose why you are teaching a lesson. As a result, your students become more
engaged than ever before.
Explore the tool and study its features when you get the chance to be
online. Try to be familiar with what you can do with it. When you have done this,
you can proceed with the task given below.

As an assessment tool

In designing a lesson, always remember that it is not about the technology

tool upon which the lesson revolves. Rather, it has to be the objective of lesson
and the knowledge and skills to be taught that will guide you in selecting the
appropriate tool or aid in order to achieve those objectives.

So the following steps may be a good guide:

STEP 1: Identify the learning objectives based on a topic or content.

1. Determine if the objectives are observable or can be manifested by the
learner.
2. Consider the subject matter that needs to be covered in the lesson.

STEP2: Determine knowledge and skills

1. Analyze students' knowledge and skills.
2. Determine how students will be able to learn the knowledge and skills.
3. Look for resources that can be useful in achieving the objectives.

STEP 3: Select a tool or an instructional aid to use.

1. Be familiar with the tool you have selected and learn how to use it.
2. Consider the content that needs to be placed in the tool or the information
that goes with the use of the tool.

STEP 4: Determine the method of Assessment

1. Use a criteria to evaluate the technology tool or instructional aid but will
always consider the content as the most important criterion.
2. Consider the quality of information, the technological skills needed by the
students or how you can present the technology tool that would suit your
objective.
