Description
I love the idea of using a blog to teach a lesson. I did a christopher columbus lesson plan complete with "journal entries" and links to follow the journey and the events before, during, and after the trip. Example... "I am sailing the largest of the ships, the Santa Maria..." This gives the students an adventurous learning process. I made this unit plan for 3rd graders.
Evaluation
Using internet based tools and web 2.0 to steer a lesson plan is a good way to attract students to curriculum material. This supports my educational philosophy because it is using fresh ways to educate students so that all learning styles are met and interest in the material is high!
Transform
Creating Unit Plans around the use of a wiki or internet based tool was not something I had considered before this class. I can see how it would be an interesting change for the students and spark their attention. This however would not be something I heavily rely on because that then defeats the purpose of it being fresh and new.
