Collaboration

This document provides information about integrating the website Kid Blog into a middle or high school classroom. Kid Blog allows students to post discussions and comment on each other's posts. The teacher can choose whether posts require approval. The integration idea is for students to use Kid Blog to share experiment results and provide peer feedback on writing. The teacher rates this a 2 on a scale of 1 to 3, indicating it would enhance lessons and likely increase engagement, but may require oversight at first.

RESOURCE DESCRIPTION

Its an online discussion board for students. They can post discussions and comment on one anothers. I
can choose whether or not I have to approve submissions. They can customize it as the please and be
able to share information much quicker.

INTEGRATION IDEA - COLLABORATION

Students can use this to share results about their experiments. They can get peer feedback on how they
could reword things. I could even go as fas as to allow them to work as a collective on group study guides
before tests and I only approve answers that are correct. I can allow this to be a collaboration across all
of my different classes too, it doesnt have to just be each individual. This way, students would also be
able to have quicker access to help with homework or questions before coming to me directly.

VALUE-ADDED EXPLANATION

Based on the value-added rating scale above, how would you rate the technology integration
you described, using the selected resource?

Explain your rating based on the rubric indicators.

I would rate this a 2. It may be able to evolve into a 1, but until I figured out exactly how responsible my
students would be. I would like it to at first just be a lesson enhancement, and not just the sole source of
peer edits.
