May 3 - May 7

In this week, I revised my web-based tutorial of ActivInspire. I've also completed the lesson plan and a lesson example. I demonstrated it to Wei to get some valuable feedback.

All of those products are ready to show on next week. Cheers !!!

April 26 - April 30

This week, I talked with Yeonjeong a lot about how to revise the web-based tutorial of ActivInspire and ActivBoard. She gave me a lot of professional suggestions. I will do the following editings:

1. Identify target audience
2. Add titles and instructional objectives for each webpage
3. Put instruction of "how to access flash tutorial" on the webpage to replace previous word document
4. Put my lesson plan as an example on the website
5. Try to develop a problem-based instruction (with scenario) as learners as a quick start.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The second thing is about my lesson example. The lesson I create is about "Numbers and Place Value", aimed for K-2 students. In developing this lesson, the following stardards are considered:

Students' prior knowledge:

• Number and Number Sense
  1.1 The student will count objects in a given set containing between 1 and 100 objects and
  write the corresponding numeral.
  1.4 The student will recognize and write numerals 0 through 100.
• Computation and Estimation
  1.8 The student will recall basic addition facts — i.e., sums to 10 or less — and the
  corresponding subtraction facts.

Students will be able to do after the class:

• Number and Number Sense
  2.1 The student will
  a) read, write, and identify the place value of each digit in a three-digit numeral
  2.2 The student will compare two whole numbers between 0 and 999, using symbols (>, <, or=) and words (greater than, less than, or equal to).

April 12 - April 23

As planed, I worked on creating instructions of more tools available in the ActivInspire. ActivClassroom is amazing ~~~

I also started to set up the website to document and show these instructions. I get more opportunities to practice my skills in Dreamweaver.
