chapter three

                I hope to one day be able to teach a class without having to spend hours writing lesson plan such as the veteran teacher discussed in chapter three. To do this, I know it will take many years of practice.

            Using the three elements of a lesson plan: academic content – what to teach, teaching goals methods and procedures – how to teach, and learning assessments – how to know what students have learned, it will enable me to produce an effective lesson allowing my students to have a clear understanding of the lesson taught.

            Way in which I can incorporate technology into my lesson, are through several different software’s available to teachers. Some of these software’s include presentation software, visual thinking software, web based diagram and flow chart making tools, and web quests.

            One thing I may not incorporate a lot of technology into is testing. I can myself maybe using it sometimes with multiple choice questions, but not too often. Since I intend to teach math, online quizzes and test wouldn’t be much use to me for I want to be able to see my students thought process on paper for how they came to the solution answer they did for a problem. This allows me to better understand how ,y students think and how I can better help them.
