Full day learning on Smartboard
Well, Friday is the day. I am heading to visit Ros, who is going to help me design some lessons for my Smartboard to use with my new class when we get back to school. Yesterday and today, I visited many websites and blogs that already have lessons to use and hints for writing lessons using Notebook software.
My first lesson is going to be about Internet safety and I would love to embed some videos or podcasts into my lesson. I visited the website where Faux Paw shows students how to be safe on the internet . Perhaps my students could design a wiki about Internet Safety. Or they could produce something similar to a Voicethread program I saw on creating new American Holidays but use different rules for being internet safe.
I don’t know what these students already know about being internet safe or how often they use the computer both at school or outside of school, so perhaps a survey would also be interesting to organize.
WOW!! This is going to be so much more interesting than photocopied sheets or standing in front of the class and lecturing.
