Group+8

OUR PROJECT PAGE

Hello group! I'm Leah...how would you guys feel about splitting up the initial work load and then obviously checking each other and adding/editing each others area? I was thinking to split it up like this...

Person 1 • Introduce and describe the theorists' contributions to the theory • Describe at least 3 main characteristics of the theory

Person 2 • Explain the strengths and weaknesses of the theory

Person 3 • Explain how the theory is associated with either direct instruction or constructivism

Person 4 • Provide at least one example of how technology can be integrated into classroom instruction that uses your learning theory. What would this classroom look like? What would the instruction look like? Include the targeted grade level. What are the goals for instruction? What would the technology integration look like?

If everybody is alright with that I say just sign up for which area you prefer. Don't forget to put your sources :)


 * Everybody in 7:00 class...we're doing Vygotsky and we already got the approval... I can do the person 3 stuff if everyone is ok with that...**
 * -Kelly Hedrick**


 * I can do the Person 1 stuff. Or if you wanted I could do person 1 and 2 stuff and the other two people could split up person 4.**
 * p.s. - wanna start communicating via facebook or e-mail instead of the wiki?**
 * My name on facebook- Billy Harty E-mail- wharty1@students.towson.edu**


 * we could cut and paste the facebook message string or email convo to the bottom of the wiki page, and have the upper part for the project**
 * -William Harty**

I could do the person 2 stuff, but if we do end up doing what William suggested i would gladly share the work load for person 4. -Patrick Wisda

Here is a link to the website Professor Smith mentioned in class: @http://www.learning-theories.com/vygotskys-social-learning-theory.html -Patrick Wisda

I guess I will do the person 4 and I will target the primary grades. William - if you want to do 1 and 2 then I can do 4 and Patrick can do a different one (like secondary grades) because it says at least one example and I'm sure it wont hurt to have 2! And I created another page for us to actually have or work in so we can leave this one as is....I am going to attempt to link it... **<---Leah? yes....sorry**

//**Just so everyone knows, don't delete this discussion were having! We have to keep this to show to him.**//

@Group 8 Activity

 * This site gives examples of activities for a "Vygotskian classroom" and also talks about using technology for Leah and whoever else is doing the person 4 section.**
