Final Project Discussion

My final project covers a lesson within a unit on states of matter.  I modified a lesson that I actually taught this semester with the intention of incorporating more technology to enhance areas where the lesson was lacking.  One of the things I found that I was most excited about was a pressure/volume online simulator.  It is a great way for students of all levels to get engaged and expand their understanding.  I also incorporated Kahoot in my lesson to engage students and, honestly, to streamline the grading process for me.  Getting feedback quickly is important for this lesson because it will help me see misconceptions to address in class.

  1. I love Kahoot for both of those reasons also! I have thought of ways I could add technology to lessons as well, and it is usually after I have completed teaching it when I look back on it. Simulations online are often great ways to teach content and keep students engaged.

  2. I also love Kahoot, and implemented it within my unit. I have used that pressure simulator, I think it is a great way to show them labs with out having to invest time and materials actually doing it.
