Technology+Curriculum+Project

**Technology Education Activities**
The purpose of this assignment is to have you design a unit of instruction that incorporates the following:

__For middle and high school teachers:__ A stand alone module of instruction that could be used in a Technology Education class at the Middle School level (MSTE - Grades 6-8) or in Broad Based Technology (High School - Grades 9-10). This unit of instruction should have the detailed activities that students would complete, with lesson plans required, over the course of 8-10 periods.

__For elementary teachers:__ A detailed Interdisciplinary Unit (IDU), complete with, unit overview, outline of all lessons, and a minimum of three detailed lesson plans per group member. This IDU would be for use with students at the elementary grade level of your choice. Use of technology should be evident throughout the unit, especially in the three detailed lesson plans each member submits. Interdisciplinary Units vary in length, but commonly fall in the 6 - 10 teaching day time frame.

__**Unit Outline **__
 * 1) Title Page
 * 2) Facilitators Guide/Unit Plan - Objective, Grade, Time Frame, Curriculum Outcomes,
 * A short (one paragraph) description of the module which would include a rationale for this particular topic or content. A short (two paragraphs) description of the instructional approach you are using. Explain why it is a worthwhile approach for your students based on your school environment, student's interests, your expertise, grade level technology outcomes, etc.
 * Page 1 -- A list of outcomes or objectives. Identify each technology outcome(s) both General and Specific you expect the module to meet. Subject area content (declarative knowledge – what the students need to know) Process Skills (procedural knowledge – what the students will do)
 * Page 2-3 -- A description of the assessment tools that measure all your outcomes or objectives. Indicate which objectives the assessments are measuring. A list of the technology resources that are being used in this unit. A lesson plan for the hook activity that will engage students in wanting to participate in your module. This will be presented in class
 * 1) Hook ACTIVITY Lesson Plan - This will be presented in class. 25 Minute Maximum (How will you hook or engage/excite your students beginning this unit of study)
 * 2) Instructional Unit (in addition to the requirements above) -
 * Middle School & High School: Must be complete with Student Guide, assessment strategies, samples, etc. for the activities that your students will be completing
 * Elementary: Must be complete with Student Guide, detailed lesson plans, assessment strategies, samples, etc. for the activities that your students will be completing.
 * 1) Assessment Tools - Rubrics, other?
 * 2) Group Size **- 2 - 3 members** -
 * 3) Project Format for s ubmitting unit plan/facilitator's guide and with lesson plans and assessment tools:
 * Web Based -
 * Weebly
 * Wiki
 * Webquest
 * Text-Based Instructions(Electronic Copy and Paper Copies must be submitted)
 * PDF
 * Bound Project
 * Other?


 * __Presentation -__** **__Timeframe - 25 Minutes__**
 * 5 Minute explanation of the Module or IDU (Grade Level, MTSE or BBTE, Elementary Subject area, time frame)
 * 20 Minute **ACTIVITY** to engage students in this project. (This could take the form of an introductory exercise, an important concept or skill that students will complete, etc.)
