TF Digital Tech Literacy: Historical Figure Facebook Project 2015

Introduction

Digital Literacy Class: We are going to learn about so many incredible ways to be creative, collaborative, and to communicate. We will focus on computer skills and applications. Some topics you already know about, and you will know better, and other topics and applications will be new to you! Either way, we will work together to find the ones you are able to use best. This class consists of Project-Based-Learning. You will be given plenty of time to learn the skills and applications that you will use for a lifetime. I hope you enjoy the material we will cover. - Mr. S

Historical Figure Facebook Project 2015 - Timeline Day

TEMPLE STUDENTS:

Please take the following surveys that will help you to identify your
learning style and whether you are left or right brain dominant:

Follow these links to Left/Right Brain and Learning Style Evaluations:

Learning Styles

Left/Right Brain

You must show the Mr. S your scores on each evaluation before
moving on to the next one. I will be walking around the room to help.
When you see your learning style or your L/R percentage, I must be able
to see it and record it before moving on. Thanks in advance for
following directions.

When you are done with the above instructions, finish setting up your Weebly.com Website.

VILLANOVA / PENN / LASALLE / DREXEL STUDENTS:

Today you must FINISH all of your research. The next step in the process is to create a Timeline for the life of your Historical Figure.

Today you will expand your knowledge of the Historical Figure (HF) you
choose yesterday. Please find three sources of information (No
Wikipedia, Wikianswers, or Search Engines (Google, Yahoo, etc)). You
must find specific sources about the life and times of your HF. Please
find as much information as possible about your HF. You will need to
focus on a specific event or date from the history of your HF to create a
Facebook Conversation around. Only find Friends for your HF that would
have been alive at the same time. You will have to "Create" a
meaningful and timely conversation on your Facebook page that is
relevant to a historical event. All of your posts should be
historically accurate.

Today's tasks are to create a Timeline of the life of your Historical
Figure and add it to the bottom of your Google Drive Document (Shared
with MR. S). Make sure that you have named your Google Drive Document
in the following way: "HFFP (Name of your HF) (Your Last Name)" My example
would be (HFFP JFKennedy Scribner).

You will also have to identify your additional three (3) sources of
information at the bottom of your Google Drive Document. Good Luck!!

Mr. S

Overall Academic Class Standards

SELF-ASSESSMENTS

Student Self-Assessments refer to training students to evaluate themselves, and their work, for the purpose of improving outcomes. To become capable evaluators of their work, students must have:

- a clear target (goal)

- the opportunity to help create definitions of the quality of work.

- the opportunity to correct, or self-adjust, their work before turning it in.

Students are also prompted to reflect and evaluate strengths, weaknesses, and areas of improvement. These skills will allow for planning, improvement, goal-setting, and reflection. Emphasis will be placed on integration of previous learning across the school curriculum.
