How can projects help my students meet standards and develop 21st century skill?
ReplyDeleteStudents will create portfolios of work to demonstate mastery of state standards. Students will implement collaboration and many uses of technology to develop technology skills and show mastery of state standards.
How can I use projects to enhance student learning?
Projects can enhance student learning by allowing them freedom of choice in the type of product they may wish to create for a lesson. Projects provide a variety of ways to address a wide variety of learning styles. Projects can be designed to meet various levels of Bloom's Taxonomy.

As a teacher, I need to develop lessons that not only meet academic standards but that also help students learn 21st century skills. I need to move beyond just paper and pencil activities. Today's students will need to know how to use technology in the jobs of tomorrow.

ReplyDeleteTo Mrs. Martin:
ReplyDeleteIt is great to finally have help in applying 21st century skills to problem-based learning projects in a meaningful way. We have known for quite awhile now that students must have technology skills to be able to compete in the new job market. Now we are finally going to get to create lessons that will help students not only meet the state standards, but to also help them master a variety of technologies that they will use in their future careers.
