Education Course EDUC 462:  Computers for Classroom Teachers

 

EDUC 462 met on Mondays from 4:30-7:30 in the Spring 2007 semester.

 

Course Summary

 

Welcome to the EDUC 462 wiki.   In this wiki I will list all the group and the individual projects that I was involved with in EDUC 462.

 

Wikis themselves are very interesting resources, having the ability to be edited by anyone that is a registered user.  This provides an on-line way to collaborate at your leisure.  Someone may have a great idea, then others can help develop it into a great program.

 

The first group project was to update our webpages at Harlan Rowe Junior High School.  Jason,Sharon, LindaKen and I worked together on this project.

Our administration has urged us to have current useful information on our webpages that parents and students alike can use in being successful while at Harlan Rowe Junior High School.  We decided that updating our webpages while taking this course would be a great way to insert up-date, cutting-edge material that would hopefully help us to be more efficient.

 

Our del.icio.us page  provides links to our textbooks and useful tutorials as well as basic facts practice.

 

For my unit transformation I chose to utilize the the four lessons on PowerPoint that our textbook makes available to teachers.

 

Lesson 1    Positive slope

 

Lesson 2    Negative slope

 

Lesson 3    Rates of change

 

Lesson 4    Comparing rates of change

 

I also utilize United Streaming video presentations to help establish a tutorial for finding the slope of a line.

 

video quiz is available to assess student learning. 

 

There is also a written pre-test and post-test that each student can use for additional practi

OK, Larry, did you create the PowerPoint lessons yourself? They're pretty jazzy.

Sorry Beth,

I am most certainly not that creative. I wanted to include these because they are what I'm currently able to use in my lessons at Athens.
