Technology Lesson Plans

Working with students who are on probation, I created a lesson plan that would incorporate the reading of the newspaper and creating a storyboard. 

Comic Book Lesson Plan

By working with a colleague, I created a unit lesson plan that will have a day to day usage of technology.  It will use an online journal and be able to be used throughout the semester in many different ways.  It can be used for creative writing and for journal type entries.  Listed below are the Unit plan, a rubric describing what is to be expected, an actual lesson using the weblogging system, and an example of the blogging experiment
