Assignment
Incorporating Technology
During the past few weeks, you have seen how technology can engage learners and enhance the learning experience. Now, you will apply what you have learned toward improving a sample assignment.
Review the sample assignment below and identify at least one technology tool that could be used with it. Remember that the focus of this assignment is learning through technology, not the technology itself.
Sample Assignment:
PSYCH 100 – Introduction to Psychology
In groups of three to five students each, create a poster that demonstrates the various learning theories we have discussed this week. Your group’s poster should include the cognitive learning theory, behavioral learning theory, and social learning theory. Then, present your poster to the class, and explain which of the theories best fits with your view of learning, and why.
Then, re-write the assignment so the selected technology tool is integrated into the prompt as a requirement. Write a paper that includes your version of the assignment prompt, explains why you selected the tool to promote learning, and describes what you hope to accomplish through using the tool.
