Reflection

The GAME plan that I developed for each of my goals was well worth it. I was able to set goals, plan an action of attack, monitor my progress and evaluate what I did. The GAME plan kept me organized throughout my lesson. At the end of the lessons the evaluation portion of the plan is what I think helped me the most. I looked back at what I did and then tried to fix my lesson. The evaluation area has made me a better teacher and helps improve my lessons.

Through the GAME plan process I was able to learn how to incorporate technology more often in my lessons. With the GAME plan I was able to incorporate blogging and wikis for my students to collaborate with each other. I have also found a very effective use for digital storytelling and all the possible scenarios it could be used for. Digital storytelling is a great way for students to showcase narrations they have written, biographies, and other projects.

Some immediate adjustments I will take in my instructional practice regarding technology integration is to find more time for it. I will have to use the GAME plan which will really benefit me and the students. By using the GAME plan it can find me that time and keep me organized. If done correctly, the time spent will more than enhance my lesson and my students learning and understanding. Finding time for online collaboration and digital storytelling is what I will focus on. PBL in my opinion can be a part of both online collaboration and digital storytelling.
