Name: Michelle Eichinger Date Completed: March 2010

** Teachers design, develop, and evaluate authentic learning experiences and assessment incorporating contemporary tools and resources to maximize content learning in context and to develop the knowledge, skills, and attitudes identified in the NETS•S. Teachers: ** a. || design or adapt relevant learning experiences that incorporate digital tools and resources to promote student learning and creativity. || b. || develop technology-enriched learning environments that enable all students to pursue their individual curiosities and become active participants in setting their own educational goals, managing their own learning, and assessing their own progress. || c. || customize and personalize learning activities to address students' diverse learning styles, working strategies, and abilities using digital tools and resources. || d. || provide students with multiple and varied formative and summative assessments aligned with content and technology standards and use resulting data to inform learning and teaching. || ** Step 1: For standard two, select the indicator that is your strongest suit for the standard and give two examples (artifacts) of why you selected it as your strongest suit. ** Indicator selected: a. design or adapt relevant learning experiences that incorporate digital tools and resources to promote student learning and creativity. Artifact 1: Participated in Trail V “A Day in the Life” activity. I had Computer Club participants (grades 4-7) brainstorm using Google Docs what activities we would want to capture on “the day”. Students took all the pictures and then created a slideshow to showcase St. Benedict School.
 * 2. Design and Develop Digital-Age Learning Experiences and Assessments **

Artifact 2: A spin off of the above, and a work in progress, Computer Club students are using //Glogster// to create a digital poster for St. Benedict School.

** Step 2: For standard two, select the indicator that is your "least strongest" suit for the standard and write a professional goal of how you are going to increase your competency with the goal this year. ** Indicator selected: c. customize and personalize learning activities to address students' diverse learning styles, working strategies, and abilities using digital tools and resources. Goal: This again is, for me, a collaboration issue. I would like to provide teachers and resource teacher with more support where needed. Reflection: I enjoy the “Pacing” meeting with my Principal because we often have an opportunity to discuss individuals and discuss strategies that may be helpful for that student.
 * Step 3: On the final TCL day, reflect on each standard and goal you set for yourself. How did you do and why? **
