TPACK questions: Storyboard

Here are my TPACK questions for my storyboard project.


Content:

Standard 1, Objective 2:
Develop language through viewing media and presenting.


Pedagogy:

The writing project we will make is an ABC book. For this project, I decided that it meets many of the third grade language arts state curriculum. This book will be a book using alliteration to learn new vocabulary, including animals the students may not be familiar with. We would go through the alphabet and brainstorm lists of animals for each letter. As a class, we would then decided on one animal per letter and construct our book using alliteration. This is a fun way to get the students involved in their learning, especially with something as difficult as learning new vocabulary terms and literary devices. Then as individuals or in small groups, we would design our own ABC book, and use PhotoStory to create it.

Technology:

We will use PhotoStory to complete this project. This is a good fit with the content, because students are required to use media to present projects. This program will allow students to use creativity to design their books. It allows for many different learning styles to feel comfortable, because there is much to learn from technology, and many ways to direct our learning.
