Hello!
So, we have to make a storyboard to help support our team website and it is due in two days (November 20th) so I figured I'd get the discussion going... We need to think "outside the box" and make sure to include everything that has to be taught in order to be able to complete the final project. We also need to remember that this project needs a big "celebration" to be shared with friends, families, and the community AND group assessment/reflection -- this will give us, as teachers, feedback along with giving students a chance to reflect on the whole project.
These are the five things we need to focus on (on e-learning):
1. The first thing you need to do is to brainstorm everything that students would need to learn to complete the project from start to finish. Once you have this figured out, then you will decide on your web pages (seen in all caps on the storyboard sample). Every group member must create at least 2 web pages with the homepage and standards page not counting (for example, if you have 3 group members there should be at least 8 pages: 2 for each group member, the homepage, and the standards page).
2. Second, you need to figure what things should be on each page .... what all should be taught even though it has not be covered in your assignments. (in italics on the storyboard sample).
3. Third, you need to plug in all assignments (lesson plans, digital stories, virtual penpal/google map, collaborative podcast, final concept map, and collaborative blog) along with web URLs from your web evaluations on the pages where they fit with group member who did it. (in regular type on the storyboard sample).
4. Fourth, figure out what original resource each group member will complete and plug it in on the page where it fits (the requirement is: Each group member needs to create one original resource -- such as a lesson plan, a podcast, etc. Word searches and crossword puzzles do NOT count!) (in all caps and italic on the storyboard sample).
5. The last thing you need to decide is what new items of information you will need to fill in all areas on the pages you have decided on (the requirement is: Each web page created by individual group member (anotherwords, not homepage or standards page) needs to contain one or more new items of information not given throughout the semester -- ideas for lesson plans that could be completed for that area of your topic. Your new original resource does not count). This is also where you will add web sites for viewer to get more information on what you are suggesting for another lesson. Remember, this is just a brief explanation of new idea with web site(s) to give more information. (see New Item of information w/web sites on the storyboard sample).
I am honestly confused about this project... I have been looking at her sample and the directions and I don't really get it.... is it supposed to be a word document that is laying out our website? are we supposed to attach all of those things to the storyboard or just write them in that we are going to put them on the website? I am so confused haha I'm sorry
ReplyDeleteI have been re-reading it everyday this week trying to make sense of it too! I am glad I am not the only one confused. Is it like a table of contents (created in a word document) for all of the activities and lessons of our whole project? Are we using this to create the website?
ReplyDeleteI don't have a clue either. I think that's why I've been so hesitant to even start the discussion for this project, haha.
ReplyDeleteYea, i did the same thing.. I looked at it on Tuesday and was like.. I have no clue what this even means.. I'll email her.. but i work from 2 til 11 so this sucks!!
ReplyDeleteI emailed her. and of course no one else has turned anything in so we can't look at that for help either lol.
DeleteI made a google doc and put as much in it as I could! Amanda you are GM#1 (group member #1), Jamie you are GM#2 and I am GM#3. Please add anything else that you can!! I won't be able to do much more with it today or get it sent out. Sorry guys, i did as much as i could! let me know if you need anything else from me! I'm hoping I did it right!

Thanks Brianna! I'm going to start working on this as soon as I get home from work!
ReplyDeleteThanks girl! I will work on it!
ReplyDeleteSo we just have to list the pages or actually create each page? I think this is where I'm getting confused.... Should it look like the example is what I'm asking I guess..
ReplyDeleteJamie, what's your phone number? Mine is 269-359-2223
