ARTIFACT FOR STANDARD 2
LESSON PLAN: USING ONE TECHNOLOGY TOOL
This artifact best exemplifies this standard because it is uses the ASSURE model to create a lesson plan in which the end product, the student's project, will be created using at least one technology tool.
We were asked to be creative. Our professor's underlying reason for this assignment was to help us change our perspective of teaching with technology.
