this the task 

Note: You will be creating one website with multiple web pages. You will need to submit an accessible URL of your website (anyone at WGU can view it) to allow for evaluation of this task. If you do not have access to a web server for the publishing of website files, please choose a website development tool that will both create and host your website.

 

A.  Create an original website that demonstrates the importance of educational technology for teaching and student learning, using a website authoring tool. Submit an accessible URL of the website. Adhere to the following requirements for the pages within your website:

1.  Create a web page describing the purpose of the website and your personal philosophy for using educational technology to facilitate student learning. Address each of the following:

•  equitable use

•  ethical use

•  social responsibility

2.  Create a web page about choosing educational technology that facilitates student learning by doing the following:

a.  Describe three different resources and how they are used to research educational technology to facilitate student learning.

b.  Describe two methods or strategies for integrating educational technology to facilitate student learning.

3.  Create a web page with a sample learning activity demonstrating the integration of a technology resource or resources, including an explanation of how technology can be integrated into each of the following:

•  curricular resources that guide instructional design (e.g., standards)

•  formative assessment strategy

•  summative assessment strate

•  how student data would be used through technology for student learning outcomes

4.  Create a web page that describes how educational and assistive technology fosters self-directedness and independent learning by doing the following:

a.  Create a section within your page that provides two examples of educational technology tools an educator can use to foster or support goals of self-directedness and independent student learning. Explain how each of these tools supports these goals.

b.  Create a section within your page that provides two examples of assistive technology, different than those used in part A4a. Describe how the technology meets individual student needs and learning in an educational setting.

 

B.  Acknowledge sources, using in-text citations and references, for content that is quoted, paraphrased, or summarized.

 

C.  Demonstrate professional communication in the content and presentation of your submission.

 

 and this is the 3 questions that were wrong  and the notes from my professor 

 

b. Learning Objectives

Approaching Competence The structure of 1 or more of the objectives does not include an appropriate behavior, condition, or measurable criterion. Certain components of any of the learning objectives are not appropriate for the grade level and content of the lesson plan, or they do not align with the state or national academic standards identified in part A2a.

 

A3b. Technology

Approaching Competence1 or more of the identified technologies would not plausibly support teaching of the lesson plan. Or the submission does not logically explain how 1 or more of the chosen technologies supports student learning in the lesson.

 

 7B1. Alignment to standards

State/National Academic Standard(s):

 

Common Core State Standard: RL.1.3 – Describe characters, settings, and major events in a story, using key details.

 

Learning Objective(s): 

Identify what students will accomplish by the end of the lesson; needs to align with the state or Common Core State Standards and needs to be measurable (condition, behavior, and criterion).

Students will be able to identify and describe characters in a story.

Behavior: Identify and describe.

Condition: In a story.

Measurable Criterion: Using key details

 

Materials  Technology

What materials will the teacher and the students need in order to complete the lesson? 

Storybooks with diverse characters (e.g., “The Lion and the Mouse,” “The Three Little Pigs,” “Cinderella”)

Chart paper or whiteboard

Markers or chalk

Sticky notes

 

How will you use technology to enhance teaching and learning?   (Optional: Use the SAMR model to explain the technology integration strategies you plan to use.)

None required for this lesson

 

Language Demands

Specific ways that academic language (vocabulary, functions, discourse, syntax) is used by students to participate in learning tasks through reading, writing, listening, and/or speaking to demonstrate their understanding. 

Identify characters in a story, setting

Language Function(s):

The content and language focus of the learning task represented by the active verbs within the learning outcomes. Common language functions include identifying main ideas and details; analyzing and interpreting characters or events; arguing a position or point of view; or predicting, recording, and evaluating data.   Common language functions in math include predicting from models and data, recording multiple ways to solve problems, justifying conclusions, evaluating data and explaining how or why certain strategies work.

To discuss the beginning, middle and the end of the story. 

Describe characters using key details

 

Vocabulary:

Includes words and phrases that are used within disciplines including: (1) words and phrases with subject-specific meanings that differ from meanings used in everyday life (e.g., table); (2) general academic vocabulary used across disciplines (e.g., compare, analyze, evaluate); and (3) subject-specific words defined for use in the discipline.

Characters, protagonist, antagonist, traits, physical appearance, personality.

 

Discourse and/or Syntax:
Discourse includes the structures of written and oral language, as well as how members of the discipline talk, write, and participate in knowledge construction. Syntax refers to the set of conventions for organizing symbols, words, and phrases together into structures (e.g., sentences, graphs, tables).

Sentence structures: “In the story, the character _______ is _______ because

 

Planned Language Supports:

The scaffolds, representations, and pedagogical strategies teachers intentionally provide to help learners understand and use the concepts of language they need to learn within disciplines.

Sentence stems: “I see a character named _______. They are _______ because _______.”
