~Welcome to the Dexter E2T2 Wiki~

 

About this Wiki

 

At this time, the wiki is only for members of the Using Moodle for Blended Instruction program at Dexter, NM which is being supported by the Regional Educational Technology Assistance (RETA) program.

 

Dexter E2T2 Educators can access the instructions for how to participate within our course environment at http://reta.nmsu.edu/moodle. If you're in the program, you already have access to that.

 

All you need is the password (which you can get within our course) and the ability to hit the EDIT PAGE button at the top of any page.  The edit is only good for 5 minutes and then a person can steal the edit.

 I have chosen  Wiki and I modify the use so that students will find it useful and meaningful.

1. What are the potential benefits and challenges of using this tool with your students?   Some of the benefits are that students can get in to higher levels  of thinking. One drawback is that it is going to require a large amount of modification to be useful to the studnets.
2. How can this tool support students in fulfilling the learning objective you have established for your module?  The learning objective is interacting with money in a more meaningful way. This tool will allow students to have to see what other studnets are thinking about, it will help them to organize thier thinking, and it will show them a meaningful way to use computers  as a communication tool.
3. What resources and/or information can you share that supports your ideas? (include links and/or resources to back up your thinking).  I will use a wiki hosting program there are several on the net that I found .

 

 

•  synchronous tools 

1. What are the potential benefits and challenges of using this tool with your students?  Due to my students disabilities they often have poor memories teaching them to use  this technology will be challenging. The benefits however will be  that they will learn a new type of commuincation.

    

2. How can this tool support students in fulfilling the learning objective you have established for your module?  Studnets can communicate with each other  about money. They could commuincate with other students with special needs who are learning the same things. I would make a  a mock store online. The students will have pictures of things such as clothing items oe food to choose from  they will have to calculate totals while they have a live chat about  the lesson they are doing. 
3. What resources and/or information can you share that supports your ideas? (include links and/or resources to back up your thinking).  On the site questionmath.com/livemathhelp.php the studnets become  more successful by using
