My Expectations
At the beginning of my project I really wasn’t sure of my expectations due to the fact that my competency with technology was extremely limited. I wasn’t sure where to start. I knew that I wanted to integrate technology within my curriculum, but my biggest problem was narrowing my focus. My final decision was to cover the health/science standards that I’d included in my CTAP lesson as well as bring various aspects of technology into my students’ experience.

I was definitely able to integrate technology into my lesson. I was fortunate to work with a very cooperative colleague and her enthusiastic and fast learning class. They were truly a joy to work with and made my job easier. I only wished I’d started earlier so that I could have taken them further with the technology integration.

Lesson ShortcomingsLesson Shortcomings
• The biggest shortcoming most likely was the timing. A person needs to allow themselves plenty of time to completely take advantage of the technology integration.
• Also because of the extensive resources available on the CD it was difficult at times to stay true to the lesson’s focus. – Keep it Simple!! Don’t try to do it all!

Lesson RevisionsLesson Revisions
• It seems to be evident that through the analysis of the student data that the use of the 5 A Day Adventures CD was beneficial to the student’s level of lesson objectives mastery.
• When the focus of the lesson changed from merely creating Kid Pix slides to the creation of a fruit or vegetable, students were able to better understand the characteristics of fruits and vegetables.

Experience SummarizationExperience Summarization
• Through the experience of this lesson I was reminded time and again of the need for a clear focus of the objective of the lesson delivered and the need of a firm grasp of the material to be covered. The use of technology enabled me to narrow my focus by more clearly identifying the most important objectives while also exposing my students to a wider array of activities.
