By Karin Blackwood and Brenda Collins

Pedagogy Technology

Constructivism

• Students use online resources for research.• Online research of primary sources.• Project/Problem based learning.• Use of real world technology skills.• Online manipulatives and tools.• Perform experiments with new technologies.• Students use technology to present their learning in a variety of ways.• Online portfolios to show growth and change• Utilize online formats for sharing information and collaboration such

as: Facebook, blogs, Twitter, Wikis, etc.• Online collaboration with peer, mentors and experts.• Students choose of how to present their learning with a wide range of

technology media format. • Ongoing summative assessments.• Summative assessments and projects.

Behaviorism  

• Use of tutorials for practice in math and language classes to give students immediate feedback & they can then try to solve the problems again.

• Use of spreadsheets with student assessment data gives students feedback and they can then change their behavior

• Make podcasts or videos of skits, singing, or dancing and upload to youtube and express yourself your way.

• Use of "clickers" where students can answer in on their own clicker and see the results on the class graphs.

• Use of Promethian/Smart Boards where students can use dual-user pens to interact on problems and do vocabulary matching games.

Cognitivism   • Interactive assignments using google docs to

share presentations and writing assignments for students to be editors as well as managers of the documents.  Classmates & teacher can both fully interact via the share system on google docs.

• Reward the learning process, rather than the final end product of the presentation/powerpoint

• Use of wiki for students to put their work for quick response by the teacher.  The wiki can also work as a place for the students to reflect on their learning.

• Students can also develop their own wiki and then share it with their classmates.

• Use of Promethian/Smart Boards to allow students to interact with the lesson
