Digital Storytelling 101 in Class

This one was originally created using Domo Animate. This is what was left of it.

Reflection on the Lesson Plan

I thought that 40 minutes was too short for an English lesson. I have had to use group or pair activities rather than individual activities. I still think my plan has too many activities for such a short lesson. 

My IT-integrated activities consisted of two homework assignments. The first one was a wiki assignment and the second one was a blogging assignment. These intended to make sure that the students wrote about the opinions about our topic that they should have formed during and after class.

The first assignment used wikispaces because I wanted my students to interact with each other when answering the questions they were given. The second assignment used our class blog because it was in the form of a fun test and I thought little comments on their answers would be sufficient for this assignment. 

Overall I thought that the use of technology in this lesson made sure that all students were included in the learning process. It ensured that they got feedback from their friends and reviewed what was learned in the previous class.
