INTEGRATION IDEA - PORTFOLIOS

How might you use this resource in a lesson plan to promote student-centered learning?
For me I would use it as a motivational factor, your parents are going to see your work so make sure
you put the effort in. Also I would potentially use video of class activities through this to add to an
Edmodo page for students to go back and review or just to watch.

would be impossible or very
difficult without it; very likely to

optimal in a student-centered
environment where students are
active and engaged in learning
The integration idea

the students directly
The integration idea described:

VALUE-ADDED EXPLANATION
Based on the value-added rating scale above, how would you rate the technology integration
you described, using the selected resource?
Explain your rating based on the rubric indicators.

I would give this resource a 1.5

My reasoning is that, while it is nice for students to have an avenue to record their work or share it with
family, it isnt necessary for the completion of the work we are doing in class. My reasoning for the .5 is
that I wouldnt be using the resource the students would be. So while it might not play a direct role in
the lesson it definitely would help with the ISTE standards I listed above.
