All
lessons are student-centered learning activities requiring
higher-order thinking skills and are designed to respond to a variety
of learning styles and skill levels to meet Tennessee Curriculum
Standards. A committee of school officials was
formed to evaluate the lessons. After determining the
process used in selecting Best Practice examples, a rubric
was established.
Designed in connection with
more than 27 hours of on-site professional development
training for each teacher, these lessons include the support of a local Technology Coach,
wireless laptop computers, and other technology
resources. A significant amount of time was also spent
by each teacher outside of their assigned training time
working on their own and attending after-school professional
development workshops.
A "Best of
the Best" lesson will be selected by a committee of
university technology education specialists from Round One and
Round Two. This teacher will receive a personal laptop
computer and recognition in our school and community for
exemplary work in technology integration.
In appreciation to the
teachers above, it is our hope you will find
these lessons helpful. All files are listed in
