  2. To use or infuse… That is the question?

  3. What is INFUSION? Turn and talk with a neighbor about: • What you know of technology infusion • What you would like to know about infusion

  4. Using Technology According to LoTI • Focus is more on computer use than on the critical content • Technology-based tools are used to supplement the existing instructional program • Technology is used as an extension activity, an enrichment exercises, or a technology-based tools • Technology use reinforces lower cognitive skill development

  5. Infusing TechnologyAccording to LoTI • Emphasis is on higher order thinking and problem solving strategies linked to critical content • Technology based tools (spreadsheets, Internet, publishing applications) compliment instruction • Curriculum based, student centered, problem based learning supported by technology

  6. Why Infuse?

  7. More Reasons to Infuse

  8. LoTI Challenge • Dr. Moersch challenged our school to reach Level 3 Infusion • Three years ago majority of teachers were on levels 0,1,2 in LoTI (Exploration) • Currently majority of teachers are functioning on levels 3,4(Infusion,Integration) in LoTI

  9. Brandywine Springs School ChoosesINFUSION • Directly supports curriculum • Directly supports constructivist model of instruction • Directly supports higher level thinking skills

  10. Tech Time Infusion Model • Tech Time Weekly Special • Teacher reinforces curriculum topics • Teacher utilizes Inspiration, United Streaming assignments, blogging, IKeepbookmarks, Orchard software • Teacher supports school initiatives such as the Stock Market Game, Accelerated Reader and Numbers Bee

  11. TIC Time Collaboration Model • Bi-monthly sessions • Technology specialist coaches and collaborates with teachers • Topics support classroom curriculum

  12. Technology Hardware • 2 Computer labs with 30 computers • 2 Smart Boards in labs • 2 sets of 30 handheld computers • 2 laptops with LCD projectors • 4 digital cameras • 2 or 3 desktops per classroom

  13. Real World Applications • Topic- Excelling • GLE’s- • Organize and informally represent categorical data • Interpret data by making comparisons of categorical data • Objective- To gather, interpret data, and represent data in various ways

  14. Tools for the Task • Technology Hardware- handheld computers, desktop computers, printer • Technology Programs-Excel

  15. Process • Students gather data about their favorite character on the Axim using Excel • Data is consolidated and students compare and discuss data • Students use the desktops in the lab to transfer results into a column table • Students use Chart Wizard to create graphic representations of their data • Students discuss and compare graphs

  16. Assessment • Students applied what they learned and created a new data table during center time • Student work was then assessed by the teacher • Students demonstrated what they had learned in writing

  17. Next steps • Using student knowledge about data tables have students create a table in Word that will become a calendar page

  18. Calendar Skills • Topic-Calendar skills • Essential Question- How are measurement and counting related? • Objective- to develop an understanding of time on the calendar • Technology Hardware- handheld computers, desktop computers • Technology Resources- Calendar resource on handheld, Excel, Word • Other resources- Large model of calendar page, differentiated word problem worksheets

  19. Process • Students create a calendar page from a table in Word • Students utilize the calendar feature on the Axims • Students develop understanding of determining dates and lapsed time (yesterday, tomorrow, 4 days from now)

  20. Assessment • Differentiated skill sheets • Anecdotal records • Student created word problems and solutions

  21. Wondrous Words • Topic-Vocabulary Building Dictionary Skills, Math terms, reading comprehension strategy of inferring • GLE- • To identify, select and use multiple sources of information (dictionary), • To use technology tools to enhance learning, use traditional and electronic search tools • To see appropriate strategies to comprehend and infer • Objective-To develop an understanding of unknown words in text, to develop understanding of the dictionary and how to use the dictionary, and to apply dictionary skills to create a math dictionary to develop understanding of math terms

  22. Tools For the Task • Technology Hardware- Desktop computers, handheld computers • Technology Resources- Wondrous Words vocabulary form, Power Point • Other Resources- Books, dictionary, vocabulary worksheet

  23. Process • Students explore a dictionary • Students use vocabulary form to list unknown words in reading text • Students transfer words onto online form, add images, and determine meaning • Students return to text and determine meaningfulness of definition

  24. Process Continued • Students transfer understanding of dictionary skills to create a classroom dictionary of math terms • Students choose a math term, define it, create a picture representing it on a Power Point slide • Class wide Power Point will be copied into a book for students

  25. Wondrous Words Form

  26. Assessment • Students will create a page for the math dictionary to model understanding of dictionary skills

  27. NUMBER SENTENCE • It is when you have two numbers which make a higher or lower number. • It always equals something. • Logan 5 word wall words +5 word wall words= 10 word wall words

  28. Tally • A device for keeping a count • It looks like a strait line • You use them in groups of 5. • Haley I used tallys to make groups of 5

  29. “Phabulous” Philadelphia • Topic-A Technology Infused Field Trip • Objective-To have the students gather information to use for writing prompts and media projects • Technology Hardware- Handheld computers, digital cameras, desktop computers • Technology Resources- IKeepbookmarks folder with Philadelphia resources, Power Point, Word

  30. Process • Students utilized a variety of online resources about Philadelphia to prepare for a field trip • Students selected a landmark in Philadelphia and recorded notes and observations • Students will use data they gathered to create a media project and writing piece to persuade people to visit the landmark
