Authentic+Assessment+Assignment


 * Authentic Assessment Assignment: **

Participants will create a dynamic interactive lesson that incorporates advanced features of the Smart board demonstrated in the presentation. Participants will use at least two Web 2.0 technologies as well as a variety of multimedia tools to help foster an exciting math lesson. Please refer to the online //Authentic Assessment Rubric// that will help specify criteria used to assess the assignment. This can also be found in the teacher share folder on our network.

The following is a list of the Web 2.0 technologies that may be appropriate to use for your interactive lesson. You may choose to use this list or supplement with other creative ideas. We will discuss participants’ ideas during the workshop, so be sure to add ideas to your diigo as we proceed with the day.


 * 1. Supplemental Sites to help create interaction between instructor, student and content. **

a. Photo Peach

[]

This is a free site that lets you import images to create a slide show or a quiz along with an mp3 file to embed in your web page, wiki or blog. You can create a quiz with images and text on a screen, ask questions or make comments. I have attached a sample Photo Peach file I created for my Geometry students.

b. Templates for power points

This is a site that provides free templates to make interactive PowerPoints. The pre-training activity will need to demonstrate active and engagement. The PowerPoint templates will provide a service to complement the Microsoft PowerPoint programs already purchased.


 * 2.To create graphic organizers for your lessons: **

a. BubbleUs

[]

This site allows you to create up to 3 pages for free of mind maps. The easy to use set-up uses icons to demonstrate its repetitive yet graphic portrayal of content. It is easy to create and export as a jpg to be uploaded onto a web page, blog or wiki. It stores the working model on the site until deleted by the user.

b.Concept Draw

[|http://conceptdraw.com]

You can download this free software for a trial version and experience a dynamic way to create graphic organizers. It has stored images useful for most business or educational topics that can be included onto the concept map. It is a very creative way to make a concept map, although its full capabilities would need to be purchased.


 * 3.To add audio, video or to upload onto Youtube or TeacherTube or slideshare: **

a. Prezi

This online presentation software allows multiple users a blank canvas to create dynamic presentations. You can import slides from a slide show or a PowerPoint presentation and use its animation capabilities to easily create a more visually appealing presentation. Then you can view your presentation on your Smart Board.

b. Glogster

This online tool lets you create a poster with embedded video, audio, images and text. This is demonstrated with an online tutorial.
