How I Used Technology to Enhance One of My Lessons in the Practicum
• Lesson objective: Students will share with a partner one thing they learned about weather •Use technology to keep the students’ interest in the lesson• Introduce pictures of weather the students may not have experienced before• Include a fun activity that has to do with weather
The first slide of the presentation
Students are giving me
examples of different types of weather that
happens in Utah
Normal Weather
Here is one of the slides from my presentation
The students looked at normal weather and talked about normal weather for
Utah
Extreme Weather
We also looked at different kinds of extreme weather
Lightning was one example I used for extreme weather
The students loved the pictures that were in my
slideshow
As I showed the slideshow, students were able to tell me which types of weather they had heard of before. Most students had never really heard of
hurricanes before.
• Mostly teacher use
• Students were involved by viewing pictures
• All students had easy access
• Promoted student involvement
• Most effective for picture viewing
• Creates motivation
• Keeps students engaged
•Motivational, but also necessary for all to see, more interactive
• Focus was weather
• Although created excitement, students learned intended material
• Was fun for kids
• Allowed access for all students
• Very visually pleasing
• Not easier without technology
•More interactive learning
