Side Dish
Integrating Technology into Blended learning
Project

You are now ready to start working on your project.  Each project will focus on one technology tool to use in the Blended Learning classroom.  When you complete the assessment, you will need to send the link to a Blended Learning Coach in order to receive credit for this section of the cookbook.  

Project One: 
Setting up The OneNote Class NoteBook

For this project, you will be working on creating the skeleton for your OneNote Class Notebook.  Think about how to set up the folders for the upcoming chapters.  For example, if I am teaching math, I would set up folders and content in OneNote Class Notebook like below:

• Collaboration
• Content
• Chapter 1 Notes
• Chapter 2 Notes
• Handouts
• Quizes
• Extra links and websites

When you finished creating your OneNote Class Notebook, take a screen shot of the screen and send it to me at kishmarcia@gmail.com 

Project two:
​Technology Tools in the Classroom

For this project, you will be focusing on one of the technology tools that can be used in the Blended Learning Classroom.  

Pick one  of the technology tools that can be used in the classroom that will promote student engagement, creativity, collaboration, critical thinking, or communication .    You can choose from, Surface,   BYOD, Chromebooks, or iPads.  For this project, you can either create a poster to share with the class or create Smore to showcase the following information. 

Your Poster or Smore should include the following

• Name of the Technology Tool
• Why you think this tool should be used in the Blended Learning Classroom
• Examples of Apps that can be used with this tool 
• Possible lesson plan ideas that will implement this tool.
