Explanation of Technology Used
In my unit, the three uses of instructional technology that I have included are a PowerPoint, a class Wiki page, and a Lovely Charts graphic organizer. The PowerPoint will be used to present information during my Direct Instruction Lesson. PowerPoint will be a good tool in order to present this information because it is well organized and easy to follow. The Wiki page will allow the students to edit and share information about characters in the play, before and after we read the play. The Wiki will enhance this lesson because it is something that all students will be able to view easily. It is also a good tool to combine all the different notes that each student writes. The Lovely Charts graphic organizer will be used to create a cause-effect flow chart showing each event in the play and the subsequent events that it triggered. Lovely Charts will be an effective tool for the cause-effect lesson because it will allow the students to create a clear chart that they can easily edit and change if they decide to add and remove different events from their chart.
