=For next time:(March 16, 2011)=

  1. Use what you’ve learned to enhance or redesign and implement a 21st century learning activity before our next workshop on March 8, 20112. 2. Prepare a 3-5 minute presentation for the March 8, 2011. In this presentation you should: a. **Describe your original lesson.** b. **Provide specific examples of the changes (level of thinking required, incorporation of technology, task is a real problem with an authentic audience, etc.) you made to enhance the lesson and what precipitated those changes (e.g. discussion from critical friends, resource you found, suggestion from peer, etc.) What's the biggest difference between the 2 lessons? (e.g. level of thinking required, incorporates technology, task is a real problem with a real audience, etc.)**  c. What went well when you implemented the lesson? d. What did students enjoy or do well? e. What challenges did you overcome? f. Are there changes you would make for the next time you use this lesson? g. Participants can determine how to share this information with the ISSAC ARRA Cadre during the March 8th workshop.

Keep in mind that we will be listening/watching 14 presentations. Please spend some time preparing in order to meet time requirements and engage the audience.
