EDU-151A Activity Plan 2
2021SP M. Brinkley
Scenario:
You are a preschool teacher, and its time to submit classroom resource requests to the school budget committee for the upcoming year. You decide to request a computer station for your classroom by submitting a technology plan. As you think about the plan, you realize that you need to take your students ages, developmental levels, and learning styles into account. For example, Kim, who is a curious and animated four-year-old, is very physical and social, and she seems to learn and communicate best when she can use her whole body. You include a description of your students individual needs along with your requests to explain your reasoning.
Assignment:
Part One:
Create a technology plan with a request for at least two types of software or technology platforms that will enhance the learning of your preschool students. Include an overview of how students with different intelligences can benefit from using different technology. Specifically, describe how your software or technology platform will be relevant to students with bodily/kinesthetic and interpersonal intelligences, such as Kim. You may want to refer to Figure 8-2: Technology and Multiple Intelligences as you write your proposal. *This should be at least 2 paragraphs (1 paragraph for each of the two types of software of technology you have chosen) and each paragraph should be 4-5 sentences each.
