Last year, I was able to reflect on some of my practices in doing one2one lessons in class. I was able to reflect and share my ideas and experiences in planning and creating lessons plans with ed tech integration. Here are some of the things I shared:
-
Be aware of your objectives for the activity.
-
If you are clear with your goals, then look for an app that can be used to make the activity more fun and engaging for students
-
Never build your learning activities around an app.
-
Be aware of the functions and limitations of the app that you plan to use in class. Explore and practice.
-
Always go back to your goal and to the context of your students. Check their tech literacy level, their age, and even their behavior.
-
Check whether your learning activity and app are aligned to your objectives.
-
Think outside the box. Think different. Consider every possibility in designing lesson plans with tech.
