Tool 7

This tool has to do with extending beyond the classroom. There are many project ideas out there. I spent time viewing different ideas from Taking It Global, iearn, One World Classrooms, and Educational World. I also enjoyed listening to the video clip of challenges when you go outside your classroom.


Content Objective: TX Cities
Plan to Implement: School year 2011-2012 probably around October
What Tools you Plan to Use: Google Doc, Google Form, Wallwisher, Wordle, and Animoto
Description: Select 4 major cities in Texas for the class to research. Student will work on a city in groups. They will use diigo to research sites I have collected. Then use a Google Doc to collect data as a group on their particular city. Students will use the following tools to show what they have learned: Wordle and Animoto. The group will make questions on Google Form about their city for others to answer after seeing and hearing their presentation. Wallwisher will be used to pose questions others might have about their city. It would be great if another class would choose a different 4 cities to research and then share between the classes.
