STANDARD 5 – Productivity Tools
The competent teacher will integrate advanced features of technology-based productivity tools to support instruction, extend communication outside the classroom, enhance classroom management, perform administrative routines more effectively, and become more productive in daily tasks.
I selected to use the Prezi Presentation I created on the school that I am student teaching at as an artifact for Technology Standard 5 because it demonstrates my knowledge and skills in using advanced technology tools to create a research product for the school and community. For this assignment, I was instructed to put together a presentation about the assets of the school I am student teaching at by researching the history of the school, the school report card, and by communicating with community members, teachers, and students. I presented my research findings to my fellow classmates in the Elementary Education program using a Prezi presentation. Included in the Prezi presentation are photos, student interviews, and a movie I created using video and photo footage from the school. It came together to give an informative, yet interesting presentation using a variety of advanced technological tools.
This artifact is an appropriate representation of the standard because it shows my ability to use advanced technology to create a product that benefits my school, the community, and my fellow teaching peers. Knowledge indicator 5A states that the competent teacher “ knows advanced features of technology-based productivity tools,” and performance indicator 5E states that the competent teacher “ identifies, selects, and integrates video and digital images in varying formats for use in presentations, publications, and/or other products.” Throughout this presentation, this knowledge is demonstrated through the variety of skills used to create this online presentation.
Creating this presentation aided in the development of my technology skills, my research skills, and my oral presentation skills. I discovered many new techniques for making research come alive in a presentation in a way that is interesting to those receiving the presentation. I learned how important it is to communicate with all different people around the community to grasp the true assets of a school, and how sharing those findings are beneficial for many different parties. Overall, the creation of this artifact has developed my knowledge and abilities in technological productivity tools, and I will continue to create products using these newly developed skills.
