National Educational Technology Standards for Students
Problem Solving & Decision Making
“What students should know and be able to do to learn effectively and
live productively in an increasingly digital world ...”
ISTE: NETS-S: www.iste.org/nets
Students use critical thinking skills to plan and conduct research, manage projects, solve problems and make informed decisions using appropriate digital tools and resources. Students: • identify and define authentic problems and significant questions for investigation. • plan and manage activities to develop a solution or complete a project. • collect and analyze data to identify solutions and/or make informed decisions. • use multiple processes and diverse perspectives to explore
alternative solutions.

Data Collection
Pedagogical FoundationsCurriculum must drive the need for technology integration
Technology is the tool used to facilitate student-centered learning
Scaffolding technology skills has to occur prior to the expectation that students can make thoughtful choices about its appropriate useDegree to which students can utilize technology is also dependent upon their level of cognitive ability.

Task: Design an experiment examining how air resistance affects falling coffee filters.
WebCams
Set up the shotClick the camera and count to 3Flip photo if needed
Mac Screen Capture - Apple - Shift - 4Hold the Control key, Click and drag
Windows - Alt-Prnt Screen or Prnt Screen
Collecting Data - Taking Pictures
Use WebCam to take pictures
Drag to Desktop for later use
Task: Take pictures of your equipment and experimental setup
Teacher Notes
Downsize images before inserting into PowerPoint
Set digital cameras to low resolution
Collecting Data - Video Capture
Task: Use WebCam to take video of the experimental runs. The video should show the differences in the runs.
Flip Video
Teacher Notes
Record video on the fly - no tapes
Have students script their words
Use tripod or steady camera position
Video first, narrate later
Collecting Data - Using Probes
Probes measure more quickly
Digitize the data
Task: Measure the acceleration of the filters falling; vary the number of filters
Recording Data
Google DocsWord Processing, Data Tables, Graphs
Wikis - Warehouse of Information
http://edtechinnovators.wikispaces.com/NECC
Task: Report your data to the Wiki above. Measurement should include number of filters and acceleration measured.
Collecting Data - Podcasting
Use Audacity to record observations of this lab
Task: Create a podcast of observations
Teacher Notes
Have students work collaboratively outside of class using Web 2.0 tools such as Google Docs
Students can paste Excel data into Word
Watch formatting of tables and document
