Ms. Deljanovan had her HS communications class present power point research about advertising campaigns. We decided to take the lesson to the next level having the students create their own radio ads for their products of research. Using audacity the students worked on radio ads. attached below is the assignment we created for the students. Feel free to use it, model it, recreate it, improve it etc. just be sure to share.

Project-based teaching is a great way to incorporate your new technology into your curriculum. By assigning group projects to your students, you can use differentiated instruction to involve all of your students in the process of learning. A great method for engaging your students!

Kipper Burleigh shared a story with me yesterday. He asked his math students to go to an equation website. One of the students said that he thought the site was not very helpful. Kipper encouraged him to search for a better site. The rest of the class joined the search and produced a long list of better sites they had found. A great example of Inquiry-based learning and collaboration. Both are 21st century learning skills!

TJ Freeman is doing web-quests with his classes. Excellent use of project-based teaching utilizing technology and 21st century learning.

My 8th grade students went beyond the text when the nitrogen cycle prompted questions about septic systems. They researched current and alternate systems w/ the laptops. This lead to a discussion with informed students. C Haflett
