Today we presented for chapter 5. I think it went better than I expected. I was happy that we decided to form the groups how we did with colors. I think one downfall we did have was we should have allowed more time for the whole class to discuss. We could have offered more in depth commentary to the pros and cons given or built on the idea that the group gave us. I do agree that we should have talked a little more about the quote given as our final thought, but it was meant to make the class think and it actually leads into next weeks chapter.
Talking about the iRLO and how to get started was very helpful. The first step is to identify a standards-based content. We then need to design a developmentally – appropriate way to address the content. We need to take into consideration what age level we are designing the iRLO for compared to the content we are focusing on. The audience needs to be considered. It was very helpful that Jeff took us through the process for downloading Scratch. The only difference is that on our home computer we should install the program. When we were first introduced to the iRLO, I was very nervous about it but now that we went through the steps and how to actually make it, I am feeling a lot more comfortable.
