Class 18: Wrap up your Productivity Tools project


Today we are going to wrap up our productivity tools project.
Your final submittal should include two parts:
Part 1:
You need to write a reflection on this project, including what you learned from creating these objects, how you think they can be used in the classroom, and at least two lesson plans found online as examples of using these productivity tools. These lesson plans should use the tools in a LoTi 2 or greater level. These lesson plans can be found from the Educator resources sites, which are on the right side of this blog. You can also google and find lesson plans that you want.
Your reflection should be no less than 450 words. It needs to be put on your productivity tool page of your web-portfolio. This page should also include at least 3 screenshots for your products.
In addition, all the nine objects should be converted to PDF files and then uploaded to your web-portfolio. The reason that you need to convert them to PDF files is for people who may not have the same Microsoft Office software can open and view your products.

Sample reflection pages:

Part 2:
Your works will be submitted to WebCT. You will be able to submit them from 11:00 am, Feb 18th, Monday to 12:20 pm , Feb 20, Wednesday.

You will need to submit the following documents: (Note: these files should be in the original Microsoft Office file format)

# Brochure/Newsletter
# Calendar for March 2008
# Attendance sheet
# Grade sheet
# Excel Pictography
# Seating chart
# Business card/Student name tag
# Certificate * 2 / Hall pass *2
# Worksheet
# The word document of your reflection. At the beginning of this word document, please indicate your productivity page's URL.

Note: Please put your name in each file's name that you submit.

Before you submit your projects, you need to find a partner and review each other's work. You should be responsible to check your partner's work according to the project rubric, and to give suggestions on how his/her work can be improved.

On Wednesday, we are going to talk about our second project: Inspiration and Kidspiration.
