Scoring Guide for Lesson Plans That Use Technology Resources

  5    4    3    2    1 0 Comments
Standards/ Learning Objectives Curriculum standards and learning objectives are specific and focused, intentionally driving the use of technology.   Curriculum standards and learning objectives are correlated to technology uses.   Curriculum standards and learning objectives are superficial uses of technology. No demonstration of curriculum standards and learning objectives connected to the use of technology.  
Curriculum Linking with Technology Uses Curriculum linking creates unique content learning benefits.

Content learning experiences/benefits are extended and would be impaired or impossible without the use of technology.
  Curriculum linking adapts or varies present student learning or work.

Content learning experiences or benefits are enhanced but possible without the use of technology.
  Curriculum linking provides "topics" for technology skills or uses.

Content learning incidental—student uses primarily to learn/practice technology skills.
Curriculum linking is incidental to technology use.

Content learning not focused. Technology uses are mostly supplemental, or to provide fun/motivation activities.
 
Cognitive Tasks

Task requires synthesis and evaluation of information. Going beyond existing understanding to create own original position or product. Knowledge creation is expected.

  Task requires analysis of information and/or putting together information from several sources to demonstrate an understanding of existing knowledge.   Task requires little analysis and is focused on simplistic tasks or concepts using a single source. Cookie-cutter, look-alike products are likely to develop. The task has little relevance to content learning.  
Assessment
Practices
Student product assessed on content as well as the effective, appropriate use of technology to promote or communicate the learner's understanding.

* Students designed assessment tools.
  Assessment focused on technical aspects of student-produced materials.

* Students are partners in designing assessment tools.
  Assessment focused on completion of task or project

* Students are informed or guided by an assessment tool designed by teacher
There is no evidence of assessment of student technology use  
Preparation for Learning Tasks * Extensive preparation expected (i.e. story-boarding, web-mapping, outlining).

* Students are expected to critically select appropriate resources.
  * Adequate preparation is expected.

* Teacher organizes multiple resources for students to use.
  * At least one preparation task is expected.

* A single resource is identified and assigned for student use.
* Preparation tasks are missing or weak.

* No resource-gathering is identified or expected.
 
Overall Focus of Technology Use Technology uses primarily "Transforming." Task creates new learning stories with new tools.   Technology uses primarily "Integrating." Task creates same learning stories with new tools.   Technology uses primarily "Literacy." Task creates technology skill stories. Technology uses are primarily organized as a peripheral activity at this time. Task creates no learning stories other than technology use.
