S3E2. Obtain, evaluate, and communicate information on how fossils provide evidence of past
organisms.
communicate how they serve as evidence of past organisms and the environments in which
they lived.
2. Develop a model to describe the sequence and conditions required for an organism to become
fossilized.
(Clarification statement: Types of fossils (cast, mold, trace, and true) are not addressed in this
standard.)
Student Engagement/Level of Technology Implementation (LoTi): I believe that this lesson would be a
LoTi lever 4 because the student are the one to come up with the template and what information is
important.

WEBSITE AND CLASSROOM BLOG CREATION TOOLS
Importance of technology: In order to finish the projects the students are to post to the blogs and without
the tool it would not get done. Even the students can do the research with books. Kids are more likely to use
the Internet. The research part of the project could be done without the Internet but posting would require
the Internet. They would lose the lesson of posting to the blogs and the whole lesson of posting to the blog.
The internet and a search engine would be used for the project to get the information need for the project.
Inspiration (optional): If you used existing example as a model for your project (whether in part or
whole), include the URL(s) so we can visit. Explain what concepts you borrowed from others.
Internet Safety and Student Privacy: Briefly discuss some possible issues surrounding Internet safety and
student privacy that could arise while implementing this learning experience and explain how you would
(1) minimize risks to students/yourself; (2) alleviate any fears by parents/administrators, and (3) follow
common Internet Safety/Acceptable Use Policies. Internet safety is the most important thing when it comes
to working in the internet. One concern would be with the student doing research. When the student search
website that are not appropriate could come up along with other add that are not good for school settings or
any settings. Using the school Wi-Fi that blocks most bad sites will help prevent some the risk. Also using a
site that is meant for students to search and screen the information can also lower the risk of anything
coming up. I think using the site with put the parent at ease when working on this assignment. Another
concern would have the students name and screen name could help hide who they are. Know the school
polices are very important and should be looked at before the project.
Describe your personal learning goal for this activity.
I hope to learn about the different component that the student put into their blogs to make them different. I
also want to see how well the student were about to compete the project and then make modification to
make it even better for the next post later on.
