Identify what technologies your students and collaborative partners
will need in order to complete this project.
1. Download this Worksheet
2. Brainstorm as a Group
Using the worksheet, have your class identify what technologies
will be needed to complete this project. In some cases it is helpful
to know not only the kind of hardware or the title of the software program,
but what model number or software version you will be using.
Host class should consider these questions. If the answer is
yes then this information needs to be included in the project description
and the requirements for joining your project:
- Do participants need specific technology to complete this project?
- Does it make a difference what software program and version or hardware
all participants are using when they gather, organize, and share information?
- Does it make a difference whether or not all participants
are using the same computer platform (e.g. pc or mac) or video
connection?
1. What technologies will you use
to gather the information?
Examples could include digital cameras, Internet connection,
science tools, literature, websites, etc. |
