TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATION FOR MEANINGFUL CLASSROOM USE
A Standards-Based Approach NAME Cathy Petty =Daily Lesson GAME Plan Template= Lesson Title: Population growth and the economic and environmental effects. ||
 * Lesson Title: Population Growth: A Look Into the Future; Digital Storytelling Describes a Day in 2090. || Related Lessons: Lesson Title: Population growth of the U.S. related to linear and quadratic functions.
 * 9th – 11th Graders

Algebra 1 || Unit: Unit: A Mathematical Analysis of World Population Growth (from Ciese Real Time Data Projects, []) || **Content Standards: 3102.5.18 Make informed decisions about practical situations using probability concepts**
 * GOALS ||
 * SPI 3102.2.2 Multiply, divide, and square numbers expressed in scientific notation**
 * ü 3102.3.33 Recognize data that can be modeled by an exponential function.**
 * ü 3102.1.6 Use a variety of strategies to estimate and compute solutions, including real-world problems.**


 * **ISTE NETS-S**

o  Creativity and innovation o Communication and collaboration o Research and information fluency || o  Critical thinking, problem-solving, & decision-making o  Digital citizenship o Technology operations and concepts || **Instructional objective(s): Use digital storytelling to apply statistical predictions to a future time. The digital story will include the use of numbers to quantitatively describe an over-populated future society. In creating a futuristic story involving the effects of overpopulation, the students will write from their personal perspectives and be better able to place a real face on statistics (Cenamo, 2009).**

|| One 55-min. class period. ( Students will be given several days to finish digital story outside of class.) ||  Using one of the teacher selected digital storytelling sites, each group will create a 3 to 5 minute story about a day in the life of a character of their choosing in the year 2109. Emphasis will be placed on the possible differences in the world due to over-population.
 * ACTION ||
 * Before-class preparation: Select two or three digital storytelling sites that students will be able to choose from for this lesson.** ||

Cathy - In the lesson title you have the year listed as 2090 and in the instructional activities it is listed as 2109. || Computer with Internet.

Cathy - Is there no computer lab available to your class for this project? A laptop cart? Shouldn't all students have equal access so that all students can gain the 21st century skills by using the technology required to gain them? - Heather You could require the students to use technology to actually show how quickly the population has grown. I believe that some technology will allow you to begin with and image and then multiply that image so many times. This could represent the exponential growth. Students could do a lot of neat things with graphics to demonstrate problems that could arise due to this growth.
 * MONITOR ||

Ongoing assessment(s): Teacher will check in with each group and approve idea before the group begins work. I like this! - Heather At end of the unit each group will give two presentations. One will be the statistical findings from lesson one and the second will be the digital story from lesson three. Different group members will give the presentations.

Cathy: I have learned the hard way that it is always a good to have the students run their ideas past you before they get too far into the project.

Accommodations and extensions:

Backup plan: Lesson reflections and notes: Invite any individuals or groups to compile all of the digital storytelling presentations into one file to share with others (classes, parents, partner classroom). Recognizing and showcasing students work helps them feel pride in their products (New,2005).
