Directions: This is a two-part assignment, that is due within 30 hours!

Part I: (Please complete the outline summarizing the information for the video and I will record the information) In order to support 21st century students, technology and innovation must be a part of instruction to engage students. As technology continues to grow at an astronomical pace, teachers must stay current on incorporating technology into instruction.

Create a 3-5 minute explainer video to inform fellow teachers about three appropriate media and technology resources that support content, skill development, and engage and support the learning of all students, and how they can relate to STEM. (I WILL CREATE THE VIDEO)

Include the following for each resource in your video:

· Summary of the resource, including links and relevant information needed to access it

· How the resource will support content and skill development, particularly in STEM

· How the resource will engage students and support learning

· Identify on the SAMR technology wheel which Bloom’s cognitive domains are addressed in the resource and how it will foster innovation and problem solving.

In addition, submit a one-page outline summarizing the information in your video.

Support your findings with a minimum of three scholarly references.

Submit your summary, video link, and references on the “Explainer Video Template.”

Part II. Please review the lesson plan attached and answer the question.

Experience with lesson implementation and reflection are key components to becoming an effective educator. Effective educators consistently reflect on their practice to make positive changes in the instruction and ensure they are meeting the needs of all students in the classroom.

Allocate at least 4 hours in the field to support this field experience.

Part 1: Lesson Plan Implementation

For this field experience, you will deliver your STEM lesson plan created during Topic 5 to either your whole mentor classroom or to a small group of students that your mentor teacher has chosen.

Remember to focus on:

· Method of teaching: Project-based, inquiry-based, or engineering design based

· Strategies to develop cross-disciplinary skills and encourage engagement

· Alignment of standards and learning objectives

· Fostering innovation and problem solving

· Use of technology and resources

Part 2: Reflection

Following your lesson plan implementation, meet with your mentor teacher to discuss your lesson and receive feedback. Below is a list of questions to ask your mentor teacher. Obtain specific examples for each area:

Mentor Feedback:

· How well was the overall lesson presented?

· How well did I communicate the learning objectives and expectations?

· How well did I demonstrate knowledge of the content of the lesson plan?

· Where did I struggle?

· What can I do to improve my instruction?

· What did I do well?

Reflection on Students and Learning Objectives:

· Did students meet the learning objectives? How do you know?

· Could the objectives have been communicated more clearly?

Professional Reflection for Future Instruction:

· What do you feel went well? What do you feel that you could still improve upon?

· How will this experience influence your future instruction?

Use any remaining field experience hours to assist the mentor teacher in providing instruction and support to the class.

In 250-500 words, summarize and reflect on your lesson plan implementation and the feedback received from your mentor teacher.

APA format is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.
