1.Discussion on the items that should be considered
before starting a project with students.
When beginning a project, there are multiple things
to take into account. First, you must gather the resources and tools necessary
to achieve the learning goals. This will include people, places, and things
(tools and technology) that will aid in their learning. Students need to
consider ways to make their project engaging and interesting to all involved
and to make it worthwhile. Next, students need to plan a project calendar with
steps and milestones that will help them stay organized and on task in order to
effectively complete each goal and learning target. Finally, student’s need to understand
the expectations for the entire project and the learning goals that they are
attempting to reach.
2. Discussion on teachers and
students’ management needs.
Management is an important thing in creating
and completing a project as well as many other things. Management includes
everything from the different tools for communication and recourses to
different methods and avenues of assessment. In order for a project to be
successful, systems and strategies need to be established for all of the above
to stay organized. The student’s needs to be kept in mind when determining which
management techniques are important and which will help them become most
successful. Another important thing to keep in mind about management is time
and flow of work so that your students are consistently completing their work
in a timely fashion.
3. Discuss some of the technology
applications that should be considered for use in a project.
Technology is a great resource for advancing
your projects. Wiki, blogs, drupal and textpattern are great online resources
to allow your students to utilize. Resources such as the ones listed above
allow students to search for information and then work collaboratively no
matter where they are. Tools such as these allow projects to be carried out in
a more time efficient manor.
Concepts in this chapter relate to our
project because there are many aspects to creating a kickball event while also
making it an educational experience for students. This chapter defines the
process of the different stages throughout the project process, which helps you
to stay organized and complete each certain task. The most important thing that
this chapter explains is that technology is a great tool to utilize in a
project. For ours specifically, we are utilizing South Korean kickball ideals
in comparison with the USA, and we would not be able to easily find that
information without the internet. Overall, this chapter outlines each step and
lays out what is important to think about before and during the project
process.
