Cyberlesson
Create a cyber lesson for a children’s literature book. Visit the
Cyberlesson Internet Project
Showcase to view samples of cyberlessons and the ways in which teachers have
used them. Include a Before, During, and After and Beyond discussion
questions/activities to be tried with children along with a rubric for assessing
performance. You will create your cyberlesson in a word as a PowerPoint
Presentation or as a web page. We will devote some class time to working on this
project. Come prepared to these sessions
with outline, websites and plan for its creation. Student projects will be
posted on Dr. Kurkjian's web page with your permission.
