OUTER SPACE

Our understanding of this project is to create a Wikispace for use within the classroom to be used as a teaching tool to aid in the learning of a particular subject or topic. The tasks within the project must include the use of three ICT tools in order to make the task of learning creative, engaging and fun for the students so that minimal interest is lost toward the project. By the end of the project (when used in a real classroom) students will have a document that can be emailed to parents or shown on parent interview nights to prove the students knowledge on the subject.

Lesson One: Inspiration – Investigation, Earth and Beyond Lesson Two: QUIZ (IMPORTANT RESOURCE FOR LESSON 2) Way to assess students knowledge from lesson 1.

Comic Life – Investigating, Earth and Beyond Lesson Three:



Brochure – Investigating, Earth and Beyond Lesson Four: Photostory – Investigating, Earth and Beyond

All the ICT tools chosen (Kidspiration, Comic Life, Publisher and Photostory as well as the use of computers in general) are intended to work on the knowledge of what the students know rather than teaching them what they should be learning. It is giving the students a chance to progress their computer skills and learn new tricks and skills within each programme. Each of the tools in this project are very different. They all play a different purpose in the project, and should address each different learning style of every student in some way. There is a good mix of writing on paper as well as computer use so each student should find this task challenging, but achievable.
