CO-PBST+7

Standard Seven: Knowledge of Technology: The teacher is skilled in technology and is knowledgeable about using technology to support instruction and enhance student learning. The teacher has demonstrated the ability to: 7.1 Apply technology to the delivery of standards-based instruction. I demonstrated this standard in making a smartboard project teaching kids the health benefits of knowing the food pyramid. 7.2 Use technology to increase student achievement I made this possible by having the kids go through the Webquest activity, which covered how to do research and write an autobiography. 7.3 Utilize technology to manage and communicate information. I utilized technology to manage and communicate information by making a podcast on my philosophy of education and learning how to do a podcast so that I can use that skill in my future classroom 7.4 Apply technology to data-driven assessments of learning. I did this by making the Webquest and making it a little bit more fun for kids to learn how to write and research. 7.5 Instruct students in basic technology skills. This was done in the Webquest and in the smartboard project. the students would learn how to use basic technology tools to help them with their assignments.
