7.2 Use technology to increase student achievement.
=== This standard has been met through the digital story telling assignment. Pictures, text, and sound were used in a digital story teaching students about the water cycle. Technology enables both audio and visual learning at the same time. This will help increase student's achievement since it can utilize both forms of learning 7.3 Utilize technology to manage and communicate information. This standard was met in the SMART Board assignment. An entire lesson plan was made using the SMART Board technology. This technology enables teachers to use a design template to manage a lesson plan and then communicate it through a presentation to students. 7.4 Apply technology to data-driven assessments of learning. Technology was applied to the data-driven annotated resource set assignment. Primary sources were gathered from the Library of Congress website and put into a lesson about 911. Text, pictures, sounds, and various kinds of information can be found at this website and compiled together to make a data-driven assignment 7.5 Instruct students in basic technology skills. The Web Quest assignment instructs students in basic technology skills. Students were asked to research an endangered animal on the Internet and then make a brochure on their findings using a design template in Microsoft word. The Web Quest uses specific links so that the students obtain credible and useful information for the completion of their brochure. ===
