Reflection:

Outstanding model of Technology Integration

In this lesson I integrated technology in order to be able to reach all of

my students. For the story I like to Hop I wanted to cover fact and fantasy.

Before the students read the story I wanted them to understand the

difference between fact and fantasy. In order to work these two terms I

presented two different video clips. I use video clips from Charlotte’s Web

and The little Rascals. I know for a fact that children love these two movies

and they are excellent tools to treat fact and fantasy. The students seem to

enjoy this class activity. As a matter of fact the result exceeded my

expectations. The students had an excellent performance in fact and

fantasy exercises throughout the unit. I believe that one of the key factors

to enable the students to engage in a positive learning environment is

motivation. In my perspective integrating technology serve as a motivation

technique for our students. This is the era of technology teachers should

embrace it and use it as a learning tool for our students.
