TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATION FOR MEANINGFUL CLASSROOM USE
= Daily Lesson GAME Plan Template Nate. This presents a real issue that, as consumers, students will encounter. This type of lesson would be great for my algebra students, many of whom will not go onto college, but will enter the work force.

Explain assignment. Pose the question “If you had $800 to spend, what computer do your buy and why? Top three choices in order. would this be considered bellwork? Explain groupings. Each student is required to turn in their own final document but students may collaborate and discuss opinions. <span style="color: #008000; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';"> I like that individual work is turned in, even though group collaboration happens, too.You could have students design their results in a format similar to product evaluations found on the web and then share with the rest of the faculty. I would be interested in what they found out if I had to buy a new computer! <span style="color: #ff0009; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">To be creative, your students could create their advertisement for that computer, as an alternative way to provide the same information. <span style="color: #ff00ff; font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Students will research and copy and paste possibilities to word documents along with URL of where they found the product. Are student to copy and paste images, specs, or both for the computers they would choose? <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';"> Students now must crictical evaluate their fouond options and rank their top three and give a educated review of why they choose them in this order. <span style="color: #ff00ff; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">How will the students critically evaluate this? Maybe you would have them create a spreadsheet and have them list the criteria that is important for their computer to have and then identify which computers meet or exceed the expectations. || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">handout notes sheet

Have students create a Word document and write the question down. || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Notes: Student groupings, environmental modifications needed, etc.


 * MONITOR ||

<span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Ongoing assessment(s): Continue to move around the classroom and monitor to make sure students are on task. It is very easy for students to get distracted when on the web <span style="color: #008000; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">.I find this to be a real problem for me as well. Is your room designed so that you can see screens from a central position? <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';"> Continue to ask probing questions to individuals such as: What is the most important thing your computer needs to be able to do? What are you willing to sacrifice when buying a computer to save money? Accommodations and extensions: This assignment becomes homework and must be completed heading into the next day. Allow for open lab time before school, after school or during lunch for students who do not have access to a computer extra time to finish. Backup plan: I have a consumer smarts video if for some reason the computers are not working, addressing the perils of buying online. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Lesson reflections and notes:
