This module has helped me think about the impact of the Internet on my students’ learning in the following ways….
I feel as though I need to educate my students on using the Internet. They are very young and inexperienced when it comes to using the Internet, especially for researching. Through this project, I believe I will be able to put my students a little ahead of where the other 2nd graders are, preparing them for future work, as they move up in their education.
I also feel more educated, myself, on the issues with copyright, and feel more comfortable sharing this with my kiddos. I want to ensure they understand all of these concepts, as they will only need these skills and understandings as they progress.

Our 2nd Class
This module has helped me think about using standards, CFQ’s, or formative assessment in the following ways…
This module really helped our group focus our project and start coming up with some ideas on how it will look in each of our classes. I was able to find the standards I will use with this project, which also helped focus me on where the project will go and what it will look like happening in my room. The CFQ's will be extremely useful in guiding my instruction. It was easier to create these after reviewing some examples during class.
I am still feeling a little lost about the assessments, but hopefully this will become more clear as we continue our work next week.

Our 1st Class
How can projects help my students meet standards and develop 21st century skills?
Attending this class will guide me in the direction of developing 21st century skills. The projects will be conected to real life, giving my students relevant projects to work on while they hone their technololgical skills.
How can I use projects to enhance student learning?
The students learning is going to become more personalized for them. These projects are going to put them at the center of the learning. They are going to learn the new skills, which will be used as they move up in grade levels.
This module has made me think about my role as instructional desginer by allowing me to really see that I am a desginer rather than "the leader". I think I will be able to get my students to take control of their learning, rather than me controlling it.
