Through my GAME plan, my students will collaborate with other students from all over the world using www.globalschoolnet.org. In using this site, my students will learn about other cultures and world issues. They will also have an opportunity to participate in world projects and international challenges. This will help my students to develop proficiency in creativity, communication and collaboration, and critical thinking. Participating in this will allow my students to work with different kinds of people and express themselves creatively.
Through my GAME plan, my students will also learn ways to stay safe when using technology. Using checklists and rubrics, my students will identify sites that are appropriate, effective, and reliable. This plan helps my students develop proficiency in decision making, digital citizenship, research & information fluency, and technology operations. In order for our students to be prepared for the future, we have to teach them how to be successful when using technology.
In reviewing my GAME plan, I feel like I have included two activities that will help my students to develop the NTES-S. This GAME plan has helped me to organize my thoughts and create two plans that will help to motivate my students through technology. I look forward to utilizing this GAME plan in the classroom.

Hi Angie,
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing the site with us; I am looking forward to using it with my students, too. It will be an excellent way to ensure our students develop the necessary skills they need for today while opening their world up and appreciating other cultures.
Angie,
