During this course, I have worked on a GAME Plan to set goals to increase my knowledge and use of technology through the NET-S Standards.
My first goal is to Model Digital-Age Work and Learning and I will use my GAME Plan as the model with my students. I will take them through the NET-S Standards and the components of my GAME Plan. We will set a classroom goal, then move on to individual goals. As part of the anti-drug curriculum, I teach "Too Good For Drugs". In the first lesson we learn the steps to set a goal. I can incorporate this into my lesson on NET-S Standards. It is important for students to see that I am a person who sets goals. I speak openly about the assignments and homework I have to do for my Walden classes.
My second goal is to Promote and Model Digital Citizenship and Responsibility. This also goes hand in hand with the NET-S Standards because students cannot access the technology unless they have been taught responsible behavior first.
I plan to have students use the GAME Plan model in Science to research animals for our Zooland unit in the Spring.

Debbie,
ReplyDeleteI think that it is so important that the teacher models the behaviors that he/she would like to see in their students. Modeling your GAME plan with your students is a great way to do that. By seeing that you are setting goals for yourself and reflecting upon them, they will see the importance of that as well.
