Summary
Students work collaboratively to develop a segment for the Daily Dolphin Report. Pairs will be developing a question of interest for students and then poll their classmates with ActiVotes. Using the data they collected, students will create a graph using Numbers that they will save and print for their video audition using Photo Booth. Before students film, they will work with their partner to write their script. Break a leg!
TIPC Ratings
This lesson is Developing in Research and Information Fluency. Students were able to construct their own questions with regard to an authentic task and collect data using ActiVotes. To increase the rating on the TIPC, students would do research information on the question they chose to pose to their classmates to use with their script.
This lesson is Approaching in Communication and Collaboration as it provided second grade students with a developmentally appropriate authentic task that blended communication, collaboration, and technology. This lesson would be Ideal/Target if a student reflection component was added.
This lesson is Approaching in Critical Thinking as students had to create a question to research, collect and graph data, analyze their data, and write a script to explain their results. This lesson would be Ideal/Target if students had more choice over what digital tool to use to best display their work.
This lesson is Developing in Creativity and Innovation as all students were given the digital tools that they had to use. To increase the TIPC rating, the students could have choice over the digital tool that they could use.
