6.4.4 The WQ challenge phase

I have kind of dragged in this phase; not getting the idea at first but as always, I have not given up. I need to do more reading, consultation and more practice - even when I am done with this section of the course/lesson. Coming up  with a clear introduction and task that captivates learners from the word go seems to be much more challenging that I imagined it would be. Despite the fact that I have put in a lot to come up with a world class WQ (that is webquest), the picture I envisaged doesn't seem to be coming. I push on and surely hope that I will be in position to see this section added to the list of those I have comprehended and am becoming more proficient in. Watch this space for more updates!!!!!

MY REVIEW OF TWO LESSONS THAT INFUSE DIGITAL LITERACY 4.3.3

LESSON A Click here to view This is a Geography lesson entitled "Our Fractured Earth" . In the lesson, the learners work in groups and generally do their research and presentations on a media of their choice. The learners use mainly power point slides they prepare themselves as opposed to those prepared by the teacher. This clearly indicates how the lesson goes a long way in engaging learners to create meaningful content as they collaborate in their groups. This knowledge is later shared. Digital methodologies and pedagogies are seen in the teacher allowing learners to use any gadgets they are permitted by their parents to use. The learners also go ahead to solve real problems when one of the groups creates a Lego motion animation representing what it might be like to be in an earthquake. The objectives in the lessons are clearly stipulated and show that digital literacy is infused. For instance, one of the objectives says that the learners will explore, analyse and evalua...
