X Teacher-directed: There is no student voice and choice in the activities. Students are guided by the
teacher's direction and expectations.
☐ Student-Led: Students are given voice and choice in the activities. They may select the topic for
presentation and/or determine the tool they will use to meet the learning goal. Products of
learning will be uniquely designed. Teacher simply facilitates the learning in a lesson like this.
☐ Project-based and/or Publishable: Students are completing projects to demonstrate their learning
and the projects can be shared outside of the classroom. This objective could be reached by
displaying the project on the school’s morning newscast, posting the project to the classroom
blog, presenting it to another class, or publishing it via an outside source.

what they think the difference is between stars and the sun. Then after the students discuss
the difference between stars and the sun, I will introduce PowerPoint. I will put PowerPoint
displayed on the front of the room. I will have students come up and practice exactly how to
navigate the website. I will then show them an example of the activity I made myself. I will
then tell them the definitions of the word they don’t know in my eBook to remember in the
future. After that I will explain to the student to get into five groups and have each group
have one specific star to do for the assignment about. I will give the students a chance to
practice on the website. While the students are in their groups. They will have a chance to go
around the room and ask the students what you are doing, and if they need help or don’t
understand the questions. When I am done observing I will give them feedback before
moving on to the next assignment. Lastly, I will conclude the class with a friendly discussion
about their experience was challenging, entertaining and about the activity.
Managing the technology/engagement: Describe a way to use this technology in a way that
gets students actively involved in authentic tasks and contexts? How will you manage the
classroom behaviors on the technology:
The student will be collaborating in the activity give them 10-minute breaks. I will manage the
student’s classroom behavior by be able to see what the students are working on the
computer and walking around the room to make sure the students are doing their work.
Universal Design for Learning (UDL):
PowerPoint has several features to help support students in their assignments. The features
are audio voice, caption in any language you want, download images, and create animations.
This is representation because there and multiple content and information that is presented
in one assignment.
Reflecting on enhanced learning:

I think the activity will help students learn more about the subject and how to utilize
PowerPoint in the future. The lesson I’m looking forward to implementing is teaching the
student what I know about PowerPoint and seeing all their eBooks come together.
