Technology Operations and Concepts
The attached artifact is an article about augmented reality and how this innovation can be used in education. The use of innovation in science and other subjects can help observe 3-D models for a better understanding of how they work.
The artifact demonstrates that I am aware of the innovative technologies and know the contemporary changes in the world of innovations. Moreover, the understanding of the innovations and the vision of their perspectives in educational needs is proof that the standard is met.
I will learn more about augmented reality and the items which have already been created in the learning needs. Moreover, I will try to get more information about the benefits of using augmented reality on different subjects and whether students are ready to implement this innovation in classes or not.
Planning & Designing Learning Environments
The attached artifact is a Unit Plan devoted to the parts of speech. It demonstrates the standard under discussion as it is a lesson plan. This artifact shows what resources are going to be used and how the lesson should be organized.
This artifact demonstrates that I have met the standard perfectly. I have designed a lesson that identified the technologies which are going to be used and predicted how they are going to be used.
I will learn how to plan and design the work of students with a better outcome. I will also try to understand how to make sure that the planning resources are interesting for students and how to design the most reliable and necessary plan for students.
Teaching, Learning, and the Curriculum
The poster devoted to the parts of speech is used as an artifact that demonstrates the third standard. This poster helps me understand students’ creativity and the desire to use computer software and other programs for making tasks.
The poster meets the standard as being an example of how a project should be completed, students will try to make it better and use other technologies to be the best. The work with computer software and programs help students learn more and develop their creative thinking.
My future goal is to learn how to encourage students for using more innovative technologies, motivate them for making creative tasks. I want to learn how not to spoil the desire for using technologies due to complicated tasks.
Assessment and Evaluation
The artifact which demonstrates how students’ knowledge is assessed and evaluated is a rubric that points to the requirements which must be met. This rubric helps us understand what is going to be assessed.
The standard is met and this artifact perfectly demonstrates it. I can assess and evaluate students’ knowledge in a full way. I can understand whether the requirements were met using grading the items which were met.
I am going to learn more about the innovative technologies which may be used while assessing students’ work. The issues which may help me increase students’ productivity should also be checked.
Productivity and Professional Practice
Grading students’ achievements are the best way to meet this standard. The grade book is an artifact that demonstrates this standard. Using the Excel computer program, I can consider not only the grades but also average points for each student and the whole class.
This artifact meets the standard as students’ achievements are the best activities that point to the classes’ productivity and teachers’ professional skills. The artifact points out that students have good knowledge, so my productivity and performance as a teacher is good.
In the future, I would like to know more about innovative technologies which may help me assess my productivity and professional practice. I will also learn about the methods which involve students’ feedback. I also want to know more about how to use the results of the assessments for increasing productivity and professional practice.
Social, Ethical, Legal, and Human Issues
Even though the artifact under discussion does not demonstrate the standard in the full volume, it ideally points to health issues. The health problem connected with writing or typing for a long time is considered.
Describing the repetitive strain injury, this artifact demonstrates one of the problems students may face while working on a computer or writing for a long period. The problem is deeply researched and the conclusion about the necessary steps to prevent health issues is drawn.
I will learn the issues mentioned in the standard to make sure that I have managed to meet them and can teach students. Professional development should be a continuous process, so I will learn not only about the human issues but also about other points discussed in the standard.
