Planning+Page

1. Authentic Assessment Activity- Participants will create an ActivInpsire flipchart that they will be able to utilize in their classrooms.

2. Presentation- Presentation will be "hands-on" with plenty of opportunities for learners/participants to practice what they are learning as they are learning it. Participants may be given a "working flipchart" to apply the skills they are learning along the way.

3. [|Graphic Organizer]- The graphic organizer is broken into sections similar to what the presentation will be broken into to help with managing essential processing through the use of segmenting.

4. Pre-Training- Participants will decide on a topic for an interactive flipchart and create an outline for a title page and objective page for the flipchart that they will create for the end of the workhop. Participants can input the title of their flipchart and their objectives into a PowerPoint document. A demonstration of how to convert from a PowerPoint to a flipchart will occur during the training.

Agenda (Tentative-each item includes time for instructor demo and participant practice) I. ActivInpsire Basics- Dashboard, using tools, review inputting text into a flipchart, converting from PowerPoint to Flipchart- 15 minutes 2. Adding Images- locating high quality images using Google Image search, adding images located on your computer, utilizing the Shared Images in ActivInspire, re-sizing images, using images as a background to a flipchart page- 30 minutes 3.Adding Shockwave files to a flipchart- can be a great way to incorporate interactive games that can be found anywhere on the internet 4. Using ActivInspire to assess student learning 5. Authentic Assessment Activity

How will you include Mayer’s principle of active processing in your authentic assessment activity? What kind of product will your participants create to demonstrate their learning using multimedia technology? **I will provide my participants with a graphic organizer to help them in selecting the information that they attend to and also to help them chunk information into meaningful segments. My participants will be given time to create and present an ActivInspire flipchart which incorporates many of the elements that I present to them.**

What kind of multimedia presentation must you create to effectively present key concepts and skills to your participants (video, PowerPoint, podcast, screencast, interactive tutorial, or other)? How will you include Mayer’s principles of dual coding and limited capacity in your presentation? **The information will be presented through an interactive tutorial. I will also make screencasts available of any demonstrations I do so that participants can review them as needed to help with dual coding. I will account for limited capacity by chunking the information into meangingful segments and giving participants time to practice each skill before moving onto the next segment.**

What kind of graphic organizer would be best to give your participants to help facilitate learning in your workshop? **The graphic organizer will allow participants to take notes as needed throughout the tutorial. They will be able to select the information that they feel is important and needs to be recorded for later.**

What concepts in your presentation will require pre-training before you begin the workshop? How will you use multimedia to engage your learners during the pre-training phase? **Adding text is a fairly basic feature of ActivInspire and works very similar to inputting text into a PowerPoint. I will have users create the first 2 pages of their final flipcharts (title and objectives pages) in a PowerPoint file as their pre-training.**

What equipment will you need to conduct your workshop (projector, laptops for each pair of participants, Internet connections, other)? **Each participant will need a laptop computer and a flash drive. A high-speed internet connection and a projector for the room that we are completing the training in will also be necessary.**

What online applications might you use? **Google Image search, various shockwave games, MindMeister**

How will your participants collaborate on their projects? How will you group them to create authentic assessment in your workshop? **I would group participants by grade-level and/or subject or content area. This would allow the participants to work collaboratively and share ideas that are relevant to their grade level and subject or content area.**
