- Here are the Standards fulfilled on Web Page and in Webquests.Author: Bowe, Andrea \"Standard 1: Teachers demonstrate a sound understanding of technology operations and concepts by representing introductory knowledge, skills, and understanding of concepts related to technology which include both current and emerging technologies. ”Games like the Sims game introduce the child to the world of computer simulations and keep interest high. They learn simple mouse and word concepts as they play and the graphic interface allows even an illiterate user to build communities and families and to learn social interactions by participating in the life of the families they have built.\"Standard 3: Teachers implement curriculum plans that include methods and strategies for applying technology to maximize student learning, higher-order skills and creativity and support learner-centered strategies that address the diverse needs of students.\" To increase assessment techniques that are Project and Portfolio based, use rubrics and save work online.. \"Standard 4: Teachers apply technology to facilitate a variety of effective assessment and evaluation strategies. Such strategies apply multiple methods of evaluation to determine students' appropriate use of technology resources.\"Assessment by actual Project and Portfolio, whether in video or audio format, is my preference and I \"grade\" on how well the child grows and evolves their own design and team processes, not just on the successful Project completion. \"Standard 5: Teachers use technology to enhance their productivity and professional practice, including effective professional development participation in order to communicate and collaborate with peers, parents, and the larger community in order to nurture student learning.\"Fund a non-profit and write grants.\"Standard 6: Teachers understand the social, ethical, legal, and human issues surrounding the use of technology in PK-12 schools and apply those principles in practice, which promote safe and healthy use of technology resources.\"Investigate the necessity of obtaining permission to video document any classroomsThat are visited or included in these workshops. Reflection JournalDESIGN BY TEAMS METHODOLOGY:Project-Based Learning (PBL) Approach.Andi BoweAs both a professional educator and as just a home-school mom, the ability to develop online instructional design for distance learning can help me and my colleagues by providing not only Learning Centers and workshops to include PBL-Based Learning online, but also the opportunity to do ongoing action research in my Design by TEAMS Methodology. All you need is online access from home or library to use this tool and the interest of your students in their own talents and abilities will maintain self-esteem and focus on goals and objectives, because I provide a wide variety of web quests and age groupings and let the user choose what line of research they will follow.(Simonson,2003, 2000). By providing TEAMS and a method to follow in their design and outcome, I can visualize a future for education where individuals, no matter their age or status level, can use natural curiosity as both focus and goal and teach and scaffold the learning for other members of the team. The TEAMS may be virtual and online or may decide to meet in person if they are all at the same geographical location at the same time. (Grades in school may combine with teachers and parents and administrators and business leaders or anyone in the community who wishes to help implement the TEAMS designs in real life situations, global or local, as the case may be. (Chen,2002) This teaches community involvement through actually doing something to implement your chosen Project and assessment is provided by ongoing personal and team assessments as the design progresses and Project Portfolios in audio, visual or print formats as final thematic Presentations. Any student or teacher is welcome to participate and the feedback loops can only help the educational process grow and flourish, as personal goals become important and the teacher becomes the guide and mentor to the accomplishment of those goals and dreams. All the methods and materials needed are in my Design by TEAMS methodology, because the teacher uses backward design(Jensen,1998), to put all the workshops offered into a scaffolded or mentored Learning process that also evolves over time with the correct feedback and interest maintained by the students themselves, especially if this feedback becomes positive enough to allow the student to actually have an impact on their own learning and will evolve into wholeness over the lifetime of learning this may inspire. (Dils,2004),(Tomlinson,1999). The environment can be anywhere the desire to learn Design by TEAMS Methodology manifests. Case Study Received on: 2004-07-29 3:14:31 PM Comments: This is a case study based on my observations of a normal day in the life on the streets that is unfortunately becoming way to common a scenario in American life as the standard of living sinks lower for those in poverty every day. Why can't we see that the base of society is the poorest and most helpless among us? Caring for her poor, with a Sanctuary Project where eco-conscious alternative lifestyles may restore vacant and abused land with permaculture and organic garden Learning Centres. I recently took a backyard in Flagstaff AZ that the previous owner had made into dust bowl conditions by repeated use of Roundup over the years, and restored the soil in one month by burying fresh compost in the denuded soil and watching in wonder as earthworms of major proportions appeared as if by magic and made humus in two weeks while I simply provided a wind break, some daily watering and old wheat grass trays, (after their second cutting for wheat grass juice), for damp places for the earthworms to live and breed. Rock dust is also a miracle ingredient we need to add to the soil we grow our food in to promote minerals often missing in processed foods. We could save the forests dying in America with rock dust applications, a low-cost and effective regenerative method! And our brains will reap the benefit if we use good food and clean up our water sources. Reflection by andi bowe 7/27/04 525 3.3 Staff Development My Staff Development Meeting is an Introduction to Design and/or a Review of the Steps in the Design Process itself with a hands-on methodology that will allow the staff to experience firsthand the benefits of the design process they will then model for their students by designing feedback loops and processes for the coming term that will allow more student interaction in government of their own school and lives. We can train and implement ongoing work online so costs are low and no substitutes are needed. Those who participate in the design process learn by doing in the same way they will model this for their students with online or hands-on workshops. Those who learn the process become the teachers for the next set of administrators and staff. No special expertise or facilities will be needed except for at least one person who has previously \"graduated\" from the workshop on design. This will be implemented to offer individual students a Project that fits their own interests (no matter how diverse), whose successful conclusion will produce a valid assessment of group and personal achievement. The Staff Development Meeting will focus on this very design process in a hands on workshop offered online for download and/or printing. The staff will design and implement a feedback process to access student involvement as a potential tool of great value in planning teaching that will offer needed skills as well as diversity. The Design Process: introduction and application as a tool for interesting research into its use as both a hands-on experiential learning process and a tool for individual assessmentCommunity involvement of parents and other local groups with interesting things to teach (like a local grange or community garden project), is also to be encouraged, at least in the initial planning if not also in the feedback loop that will be established by the teachers themselves at the initial meeting by using the very design process they will be learning at the same time, in a true \"hands-on\" fashion that will undoubtedly translate to improved staff relations as well. Since most of the work may also be done online in tele-conferencing, sessions may be on site instead of in sight physically of each other if time and space limitations conflict with everyone actually getting together at the same time in the same place. This also makes the workshop very inexpensive! The total cost of the staff development will be determined only by what the participants would like on the lunch menu, because each staff member will have online access to the information all summer and should be able to come fully prepared to brainstorm and design their feedback loops for the coming term or year.Designing a Power Point Presentation that can be offered online and to the community. This will issue an invitation to anyone to attend a small workshop that documents and mentors this form of action research, using the Design by TEAMS Methodology available on my free web pages and also available for reproduction on any local internet-linked computer access. I offer these workshops free of charge, because they include a half-day potluck or picnic, usually in a city or county park if not at the school. So the cost stays low and everyone who attends becomes a mentor for the next Voyage on the Ship of Discovery!<number>
- Leadership is a function of self-actualization. Without self-esteem, you will not be a leader, especially not an effective one. Charisma is believing in yourself. Leaders must believe in their goals, or who will follow? Love is walking in someone else’s footsteps, so you don’t have to step on the thorns.<number>
