Teaching With Technology
My Lesson and Myself
•Students “experience” the popular culture of the 1950s through research of TV, Cars, Music, and Fashion
•I am the U.S. History teacher at Holtville High School
My Expectations
• To be able to integrate more technology into my lessons
• To help students learn more technology
• To get students motivated through use of technology
Actual Learning
Daily use of the LCD projector
Hotlists help, but students are very resourceful.
More practice with Standards-based learning
Successes
• Students motivated to research topics b/c of technology
• I achieved my goal of integrating technology
• Covered the standard in a short amount of time
Shortcomings
• Group roles not well-defined
• Some students may have been off task while teacher is trouble-shooting technology problems
• Assessment not sophisticated

Lesson Revisions
• Teacher selects the groups of four for home groups, they each choose area of expertise (TV, Cars, Music, Fashion) for expert groups
• Make expert group roles more defined (researcher, artist, vocabulary, etc.)
Summary
• Technology made this lesson come alive for the students
• Students were able to use the LCD projector to share whole websites (the ’50s are particularly rich)
• The cooperative groups can be structured by the teacher to facilitate more learning
• Start with the assessment!
