TIP+Project

This page is dedicated to sharing all information and files related to the Technology Integration Project. You should have an introduction explaining the overall goal/theme of the lessons and attach all files for each of the lesson plans. Below are three examples, two are from previous students enrolled in this class. Please do not view there examples of exactly what to do but I wanted you to be able to see two different approaches to the TIP Project page. The third is what I have made up, it is still a work in progress but you should be able to get the basic idea.

Student 1 Example This project contains a lot of detail and displays one example of how you might put yours together.

Student 2 Example This project is a much more streamlined example. Both are correct it just depends on how you want to display your work.

Below is how I might approach this project:

Introduction
The project featured on this page was the culminating project for EIPT 3043. I worked with two other students to complete a series of lesson plans for 7th grade students in a computer applications class. The two classmates I worked with were Michael Pogue, Technology Education major, and Jen Forehand, Library Media Specialist major.

As a group we decided to focus on teaching keyboarding to our students because it is a fundamental skill that will be necessary for all students as they proceed in their education futures. Keyboarding skills are also an important part of the Common Core Standards for all grade levels. The attached lesson plan matrix outlines what standards we are teaching, a description of our students and classroom, who is teaching what content, the timeline for each lesson, and how we will assess student learning.

Lesson 1 by Jen Forehand: Why We Learn Keyboarding...
In this lesson students will participate in a class discussion about how keyboarding skills are used in daily life. The lesson plan below gives detail about the plan for the class period:

Why We Learn Keyboarding Screencast This video talks about the necessity for learning keyboarding as well as how you place your hands on the keyboard properly.
