Description of how to implement in the class:
This activity can be implemented several different ways in the classroom. The PowerPoint and
mp4 presentation that I created can be used to introduce both the lesson topic and the software
students will be using individually later in the lesson. The mp4 presentation is interactive because
students can respond to the questions in the video. It also provides me, as the educator, an
opportunity to check for understanding before diving into the body of the lesson.
After I present my mp4 presentation to introduce the topic and once I teach the content, students
will have the opportunity to create their own PowerPoint presentations about their favorite branch
of government. Students will be instructed to research their favorite branch of government and
discover several facts about it that were not discussed in the lesson. After creating the PowerPoint,
each student will have the opportunity to record their voice narrating each slide. Then they will
convert their PowerPoints to a video. As students complete their videos, I will assist them in
uploading the presentations to the class blog for parents, other faculty, and members of the
community to view.
Level of Technology Implementation (LoTi):
This lesson plans meets LoTi level 4. This lesson reaches up to level 4 because it provides voice
and choice to the students as far as what branch of government the students want to research. The
students are also able to choose what graphics to include in their individual presentations.
Furthermore, LoTi level 4 requires that the software is modeled to the students and then turned over
to them to work on later in the lesson, which is what takes place in this lesson plan. I model with my
mp4 presentation and then students create their own. Finally, student work is uploaded to a
classroom blog for people outside the classroom to see.
Description of the sample spreadsheet and graph/chart provided:
When viewers open my mp4 presentation or PowerPoint they will see that the topic of the lesson,
the three branches of government, is the title of my presentation. Then users will observe a video
with audio recording that the students are able to interact with.
