Describe how you would incorporate an Online Project/Collaboration Site/Publishing Opportunity in your
classroom:
I would incorporate online projects into my classroom by going through the various online project sites the
web has to offer and picking a few I find most beneficial for each of the subject areas. The students will be
able to access these sites during designated lessons. The students will use these sites to create original work
and interact with students outside the classroom and experts in the particular area they are studying. The
students will be able to use these sites in any subject area to expand their thinking.
The students will be required to interact with the expert available for discussion. The students will be
expected to interact with other students and their work and offer feedback. The students will take feedback
from other students and collaborate on thoughts. Students will publish their work and share it with an
audience and participate in contest if the opportunity arises.
What technologies would be required to implement this proposed learning activity in a classroom?
The students will need a computer or an IPAD to utilize the online project site. The students may even want
to utilize Word processing for editing purposes.
Describe how the following features are addressed in this learning experience (note: all of them may not be
addressed in the project, but most should be if you are reaching a high LoTi Level).
a. Collaboration with peers, near-peers, mentors outside their classroom and often beyond their
school: The students will be required to interact with writers on the site. The writers offer guides to
writing different types of writing.
b. Student-centered learning and knowledge creation (creating original data and or producing original
products as a result of engaging in a project): The students will be going through the steps of writing
with the writer the type of writing piece they chose. The student will be brainstorming and creating
their own writing piece.
c. Higher-order thinking: The students will be required to use higher order thinking by asking questions
and brainstorming their topic to write about. The students utilize higher order thinking by digging
deeper into their thoughts and creating a writing piece of their own.
d. Students publishing their original work to others who will use/care about their product: The
students will publish their final writing piece on the online project site.
