in face-to-face and virtual environments.
The students will present their material face-to-face to their peers, as well as post it to Youtube to explain

Assessment
Formative Assessment Plan: How could you use technology to formatively assess your students? What
will your formative assessment(s) tell you? How will your formative assessment help student(s) manage
their own learning?
Kahoot is a great way to formatively assess my students on their knowledge of the Revolutionary War. It can be
little quick quizzes at various times during the chapter to check for understanding before continuing on with the
chapter to ensure students have a firm grasp of the material before moving on. You can also add in videos at
various times to further the students understanding. I think Kahoot will allow students to self-reflect on what they
are learning, and to make the necessary changes to accurately recall the information.

Summative Assessment Plan: What is the summative assessment in your lesson?


A summative assessment would be a google form assessment on the chapter material that they learned from
reading the chapter, and also researching for their presentation. This will accurately show their comprehensive
knowledge of the chapter, and also compare them to their fellow classmates. It will also cut down on paper use,
and I think it will engage the students using a computer/tablet.

ISTE Standard 2a: How does this lesson and assessment plan incorporate digital tools and resources to
promote student learning and creativity?
This lesson and assessment plan incorporates a presentation using Prezi, as well as Kahoot and Google Forms
to promote students learning and creativity. They are able to express their creative side as well as continue
learning with the Prezi, and also check themselves for understanding with Kahoot and Google Forms.

ISTE Standard 2b: How does this lesson and assessment plan enable students to become active
participants in setting their own educational goals, managing their own learning, and accessing their own
progress?
This lesson and assessment plan enables students to be active in understanding and managing their progress
because it is up to them to put together a presentation on the Revolutionary War, and also answer comprehension
questions about the Revolutionary War.

ISTE Standard 2c: How does this lesson and assessment plan personalize learning?

It personalizes learning because it allows students to show their uniqueness and creativity through the
presentation. Using Kahoot and Google Forms it also allows students to be critical of their own understanding.

ISTE Standard 2d: How does this assessment plan inform learning and teaching?
It informs learning because it causes students to go and seek out their own information, as well as being tested on
the core information that is presented in the book. The students will also teach their peers about their
presentations to help their peers understand a different side of the material.
