Day 2 of ICP Presentations


Monday was our last class of the semester. Many people presented their ICP projects. I learned alot from the presentations as they ranged in topics. I also presented my ICP lesson. Here are my reflections from the night:
Janine
I liked how she began the presentation by asking questions of how we as teachers try to accommodate ELL learners. Her visual of a concept map was very effective. She also provided useful websites. I also liked the checklist provided. It is good for teachers to evaluate their teaching to make sure they are meeting their needs. Great Job!!
Danielle
This is a great topic. Students will definitely be motivated to play simulated games and the great benefit is they are learning at the same time. By asking the question if we would rather be in Vegas playing games or being at home playing board games was a motivating way to start the presentation. It really caught my attention. I also liked the survey you completed with students in your school. The results are based on the actual people who are affected by using simulative games in the classroom. I found your presentation very informative. Great Job!!
Rebecca
This is a topic we are familiar with as we are all keeping a blog for this course. The two scenarios provided were effective in showing the advantages of using technology in the classroom. I also liked how she asked us to reflect on what type of blog we are keeping. Overall it was a great presentation. Great Job!!
Amy
I t was nice to see a different way of presenting the ICP. I liked the wiki you created. Unfortunately I kept losing audio so I was unable to hear most of the presentation. I did like the video you chose to incorporate into the wiki page. Awesome job!
Jennifer
The quote she used to begin her presentation caught my attention. Jennifer effectively made a chart of decision-making and problem solving. I also found her picture of bloom’s taxonomy an effective way to see the different steps. Overall great presentation!
Angela
Many of the students in the class are part of a social network such as Facebook or Myspace. This was a topic we are familiar with. However not many people in the class were familiar with twitter. Recently the new buzzword is Twitter but I was still not aware of what exactly it was used for. I found this presentation to be very informative. It was interesting to see how many people in the classroom do not like the idea of twitter. Angela also clearly expressed her opinion of twitter. Great presentation.
Maureen
This was a topic that not many of us were familiar with. Some of the students in the class were able to guess a few of the six c’s. The presentation was very insightful. It shows the power of motivation over student’s progress. It is interesting to see that Technology was the seventh c as many students are extremely motivated by using technology.
Lindsay
I like how you listed assistive tools for reading, writing and math. The presentation was very informative. I liked the slide she provided with useful websites. This is a great resource for teachers to have. Overall, great job!
Lisa
This was a very interesting topic. I liked how you presented your topic by creating a science lesson to teach your topic. I found this to be an effective way to teach your topic. It was very informative. Great Job!!
My own presentation
I also presented my ICP lesson. I was very nervous as I have never been given the role of being a moderator. I was able to upload my presentation without a problem. However for some reason the slidebloom presentation would close. I would then have to upload my presentation again. This cut into my presentation time so I was unable to finish my presentation. Besides the slight problems with technology I think my lesson went well. Students actively participated in the lesson. I also read some comments left by other students. They all enjoyed the lesson and liked how interactive it was.
