My second goal focused on using technology to assess my students' learning styles and differentiate for their needs. I found many online quizzes that are easy enough for a first grader to read, and give insight into how they learn. I created an inventory of behaviors that demonstrate various learning styles and have been keeping anecdotal records for each student with these indicators marked. I have also expanded my understanding of technology in the classroom beyond computer software, and have been considering using digital cameras and FlipCam technology as an alternate way for students to demonstrate their learning.
For this school year, I plan to lead my class in communicating online with our partner class. Also, I have taught my students how to use both types of cameras and will be experimenting with their ability to use these effectively and making changes as needed.
