Teacher+Portfolios

= Showcasing 21st Century Teaching and Learning = Grant money has enabled the district to equip teachers with classroom sets of laptops and continuing professional development to learn how to effectively infuse technology in our classrooms to engage students in activities that promote higher levels of thinking. As stated in the grant, we must document and share our journey. This documentation will allow us to reflect on our teaching practices and to create a library of 21st Century lessons.

**By May 2010, each participant will design and implement at least two (2) lessons/activities and document their implementation in a teacher portfolio.**
 * Lessons/Activities should demonstrate use of at least one researched best practice (This is not an all-inclusive list, but is a good resource.)
 * Lessons/Activities should engage students in the highest levels of Bloom's, going beyond //remembering// and //understanding//.
 * Teachers use their assigned individual wiki pages as their teacher portfolio to document the lesson/activity. You may include links to any supporting resources or student samples and/or embed materials (via copying HTML embed code):
 * Include a **brief overview** of the lesson/activity.
 * Include the lesson **objectives** and **SLE's**.
 * Include at least two **student-created artifacts** to show samples of what students create in the activity.
 * If possible, include **picture and/or video** of students working on the lesson/activity.
 * Include a **brief reflection** (like a journal entry) of the lesson/activity--what worked well, what hurdles you may have encountered, what you might do differently next time...
