Profile for Technology Literate Students
This week's example is from the Profiles for Technology Literate Students for grades PK-2.
10. Demonstrate the ability to navigate in virtual environments such as electronic books, simulation software, and web sites. (6)
This profile can be used in classrooms in a couple of different ways. E-books are available through the Park Side card catalog on Follett Shelf, an example of simulation software would be web-based games such as Spellathon (posted last week) as well as many learning web sites. Many teachers are already implementing this profile in their classroom...hooray!
