Planning

//(This page has been designed for planning. It would not be available to learners.)//

**Begin Development** 
 * Working Page in Wiki:** Now that you have determined the authentic assessment activity you want to develop for your workshop, create a working page in your wiki where you can begin planning. (Note: This page will not be available to your participants.) Your Instructor will check on your progress throughout the quarter.

Sketch out a plan for the workshop you will create in Modules 3, 4, and 5, including pre-training, presentation of key concepts/content/skills, a graphic organizer, and an authentic assessment activity for your participants. Answer the following questions on the planning page in your wiki:
 * Agenda:** Create a tentative agenda for your five-hour workshop and post it to the title page of your workshop wiki. Outline each segment and include the time allotted for each activity. Be sure to consider how much time you need to teach each element of the workshop (i.e., how to use the technology chosen for the authentic assessment activity, present key ideas, and so forth).

1. **How will you include Mayer’s principle of active processing in your authentic assessment activity? What kind of product will your participants create to demonstrate their learning using multimedia technology?**

When developing the authentic assessment assignment for this lesson, I plan to use Mayer’s principle of active processing. This process will take place when learners organize incoming information and integrate new information with knowledge. Learners will create an electronic Glogster poster to display their learning style vs. their teaching style and include a brief audio statement explaining how one might alter their teaching strategies to accommodate students learning styles. “Based on my teaching style I feel I should include more _____ to reach my _ students.”

2. **What kind of multimedia presentation must you create to effectively present key concepts and skills to your participants (video, PowerPoint, podcast, screencast, interactive tutorial, or other)? How will you include Mayer’s principles of dual coding and limited capacity in your presentation?**

I plan to create a video (MovieMaker) or PowerPoint to present key concepts and skills for my learners. The presentation will explain the given Glogster assignment. When creating the presentation, I plan to include Mayer’s principles of dual coding and limited capacity. This will be done by including both a visual and audio component to the presentation. I also plan to limit extraneous materials and break information into manageable chucks to help learners focus on key information.

3. **What kind of graphic organizer would be best to give your participants to help facilitate learning in your workshop?**

A graphic organizer will be used to demonstrate how teaching styles impacts learning styles. Learners will be provided with a flow chart on how to create an electronic graphic organizer poster using Glogster. This will provide a general idea of the necessary functions to create their project.

4. **What concepts in your presentation will require pre-training before you begin the workshop? How will you use multimedia to engage your learners during the pre-training phase?**

Prior to the beginning of the workshop, learners will be provided a brief explaining about learning styles and teaching styles. This presentation will be created using MovieMaker.

5. **What equipment will you need to conduct your workshop (projector, laptops for each pair of participants, Internet connections, other)?**

For this workshop, we will need computers/laptops with internet access, headsets with microphones or built in microphones and Microsoft office software.

6. **What online applications might you use?**

For this presentation, we will use Glogster and take surveys using online websites.

7. **How will your participants collaborate on their projects? How will you group them to create authentic assessment in your workshop?**

Learners will work in grade level groups to present their electronic posters to their group.
