Practicum Week 11


March 25, 2019 - 45 minutes

We taught the first lesson of our digital citizenship unit on creating a positive digital footprint. Overall, the lesson went well. The students seemed to enjoy the content as they made get connections between the material and things in their own lives. There was a slight issue getting students to access the site through the Google Classroom link. Fortunately, I had created an easy bit.ly link that I wrote demonstrated how to type into the address bar (bit.ly/DFootprint). Other than that initial problem, the lesson was successful.

Day 2 - This lesson went a little longer than we had anticipated. However, we adjusted on the fly to make it work. We began with Ms. Hull reviewing the content from lesson one. The students did a nice job remembering what a digital footprint is. After the review, we moved into the 5 P's for creating a positive digital footprint. There were no issues during this lesson other than the time factor. The main reason time became an issue was because the students were sharing a lot their personal experiences.
The lesson ended with the students using Flipgrid to create a video response. This was the students' first experiences using Flipgrid and they did a great job. Ms. Hull shared with the class that they will be using Flipgrid more often. the students were very excited about this.

Day 3 - We wrapped up the Digital Footprint unit this morning. The lesson began with the students watching some of their peers' Flipgrid videos. Ms. Hull and I had viewed the videos yesterday and selected some to show. This was the highlight for the students.
Once again, the lesson went longer than we had anticipated. We had to shorten some of the experiences with the interactive games. However, overall, the lesson and unit were a success.
