It will be developed using MS-Powerpoint which is used starting in the beginning of grade 4 within the general education setting. TSW summarize by using textbook and class notes along with information from given web links to develop slides on the laptops. TSW collaborate and work in groups of three at the five laptops located in the classroom. They will discuss, research, rotate and input data on slides that will in turn be merged into one classwide presentation. TSW cite any sites where they received information, and they will embed links that were used to show their classmates where the information was from. TSW revise and edit the slides once they are handed out. All changes on the slides will come from student input. TSWT present their slides to the class.

My vision is that all students will learn in an enjoyable environment that involves many different types of technology. Students will be engaged in differentiated learning through various tools such as MS-Office products (Word, PowerPoint), interactive technologies (interactive whiteboards), overhead projectors when necessary, laptops, headsets, microphones, podcasting, wikis, and the sort. All students will be introduced to the technologies and will turn key the learning of these tools to their peers. This will happen by me teaching a student who will then act as the resident expert with that skill or tool. That resident expert will then teach another student, and so on. Different students will act as resident experts based on skill, knowledge, ability, and interest level. All students will be given opportunities in an environment that leads them to a successful outcome. This type of teaching and learning will build on current skills, expand knowledge, allow for students to take chances in a supportive and successful situation. || Name of Project: My Dream World Brief one-sentence description of project: "My Dream World" is a warm and open place for all students to share their ideas about their ideal world.
