Cloud Learning Student Assignment

Activity: Sharing Google Docs

 1. Develop a student centered learning experience, assignment or assessment that utilizes the collaborative capabilities of Google Drive and Docs, Sheets or Slides.

 2. Share your artifact via Google Drive with your instructor and provide a link to it in your Blog reflection for this unit.

Hi Colleagues!

Here is the link to my collaborative assignment using Google Docs:

https://docs.google.com/a/d219.org/document/d/1gv5atcFpfFuqw9S8hAnDaRfJfAH5-k8foR_H0o5Zb8g/edit?usp=sharing

I would assign this as an in-class assignment so I could see students working together and make sure that they are only using this assignment page and a dictionary page if necessary. The terms "allusion" and "literal language" would have already been defined and used frequently in class before this point.

    Great job Cynthia Fey! Being someone who did not do well with Shakespeare in high school, this project would have definitely been a stretch for me to complete. However, being that this assignment involves paraphrasing, I'm sure I would have learned a lot from it!
    I also like how you thought of using the revision history to ensure that both partners are contributing! That's very Web 2.0 savvy!

Week One of Tech One - Whee!

Hi Colleagues! I hope you're enjoying the gorgeous weather this week. I'm trying to wrap my head around the materials and requirements for our Tech 1 course. A brand new Chromebook! Wow! So appreciated! I read Chapter 9 of Web 2.0 How-to for Educators this morning and although some of the terms went right over my head and some of the tools sounded off (Bing is an intelligent search engine? And the copyright of our text is 2010?), there were a lot of good ideas here. Page 162's claim that "object recognition, natural language and smart searching of the semantic web" will improve student searches was a thought-provoking idea. I loved the article about Bloom's Taxonomy for Web 2.0 . Cool way to look at the new set of actions we want from students. Now I'm off to email Jason about my Atomic Learning test. Eager to read your comments and post some of my own. Take care, Cindy Fey

Digital Storytelling - An Epic Task!

Digital Storytelling Lesson Reflection Blog Post: Weigh the benefits and challenges that you anticipate from integrating video into your classroom. How can you best leverage this original content to provide your students with enhanced learning opportunities? How can you integrate these resources into your curriculum in a meaningful way for your students? Well, I spent so many hours this week working on the Digital Storytelling unit, reading up on resources and making my video project and hitting the wall with tech problems and trouble-shooting and on and on, but (hopefully) ta-da! Here it is! Or here: Introduction to Archetypes I'd like to share my process of creating this project with you so I can document and learn from what worked well and more importantly, WHAT DID NOT! I knew I wanted to work with the topic of archetypes because many English teachers of freshmen structure their year through study of the thematic archetypes of The Golden Age, The God-T...
