My Threats
-
State Standards
- State standards change and may be difficult to
integrate technology and maintain the standards set.
-
Student Comprehension
- Students may not find technology easy to use, show students
first hand the capabilities, and an interest may be strruck.
-
Access
- Schools may not have necessary materials, neither will students.
Checking with librarian, and using free
software will jump this hurdle
-
My Opportunities
- Projects- making projects technologically based
- Study Time- using technology to helps students
with studying, instead of notecards, study guides etc
- Parent Involvement- Making Online Lesson Plan assessments
and course plans for parents to track students (Maybe with glogs)
-
My Weaknesses
-
Interest
- Work around by doing what I have
to do to maintain student interest
-
Organization
- Make detailed folders to keep
plans and ideas together in the same location
-
Planning
- Make detailed Lesson Plans to ensure
organization and focused work assignments
-
My Strengths
