Use this template for your individual self study planning and brainstorming. First think about the areas where you would like to place your focus during the institute. Then think about the tools and resources outlined on this site and how they can help you meet your goals. Once you've done some individual brainstorming we'll guide you through an activity to help you refine your goals and form a group.

What is an area where you'd like to work on personal growth? Some examples:
  • Organizing online bookmarks and materials so they are easy to find
  • Building a bank of photos and media to use throughout the year
  • Setting up units and homework activities online
What is an area of student achievement where you'd like to focus? Some examples:
  • Helping students master vocabulary terms.
  • Developing units for student collaborative projects during the year
During DLSI I IV you've had a chance to explore many tools. How will you use these to support learning in your classroom?
  • Studywiz
  • Podcasting
  • Wikis and Blogs
  • Del.icio.us
  • iLife
  • iWork

Now record your goals for this week:

Personal Growth Goal:
To enhance my curriculum so that is so much more engaging! No more just lecturing...I want the students to get involved and own it and know so much more than it seems time allows!



Student Achievement Goal:Well, let me figure it out first and then I can make goals. However, unless I have a handle on it, I cannot help others with it. I want them to be engaged and interested and to own the learning.





Use this chart to jot down ideas for any of these tools. Feel free to add your own tools to the chart too.


How would this assist in meeting my personal goal?How would this assist in meeting my student achievement goal?
Studywiz
Not much except that it will help the students stay focused.

Podcasting
It would mean that the students would have to authentically own something. I hope that they can research a moral topic and then create a presentation with the pros and cons.

Wikis and Blogs
Maybe they could use these for journals.

Del.icio.us
Not needed.

iLife
Maybe for a creative aspect.

iWork
What is this?
