  1. my name is kelly Clem.
  2. And this is my plan of action project for
  3. module six education Fivethirtyeight media literacy for teachers.
  4. Yeah,
  5. so my top three classroom tech tools that I'll be discussing.
  6. R presi Jam board and Canada and I'll be going over how I have
  7. been incorporating these platforms into my classroom
  8. use and how I will utilize these platforms
  9. to continue my media literacy development for my students.
  10. Yeah,
  11. press e is the platform that I'm using currently to
  12. make this presentation is a tool for making visual presentations.
  13. Infographics There are pros and cons for this platform, like any platform,
  14. the pros for Presi or that students can
  15. collaborate one on one on one document presentation.
  16. It's easy to share the link with others Inside and outside of the platform has a
  17. user friendly interface that includes a lot of
  18. tutorials on how to navigate this platform.
  19. It allows for animations, embedding videos,
  20. documents and images add makes available transitions to give your
  21. presentation a professional look and students can access free accounts.
  22. Some of the cons of this platform is that it's not mobile friendly so that those who
  23. are using their phones or tablets to connect to
  24. their classrooms may have a more difficult time.
  25. Navigating Presi,
  26. A subscription is required in order to make presentations private.
  27. Otherwise all presentations are available for public viewing and a subscription
  28. is required to access many of the resources such as images,
  29. videos and templates.
  30. Mhm
  31. Jam board is another platform that I really enjoy using in my class.
  32. It is a tool for group collaboration via visual presentations and idea boards.
  33. Pros for this platform are that it's easy for
  34. multiple students to collaborate on one idea board.
  35. It's easy to share links with others.
  36. It has a user friendly interface so this one also comes with a lot of tutorials.
  37. It is mobile friendly,
  38. it connects to google classroom accounts which
  39. a lot of school districts are currently using
  40. and it has a lot of visuals and assistance for are more visual learners.
  41. Some of the cons of this platform or that subscription
  42. is required to have an unlimited number of collaborators.
  43. So educators who have quite a few students may need to
  44. consider subscribing and that templates are not easily made available to students
  45. canvas.
  46. My next tool that I'll be discussing,
  47. it's a platform that is used for making visual presentations flyers,
  48. posters and more the pros of this platform or that it's
  49. easy for multiple students to collaborate on one document or project.
  50. It is easy to share links with others inside and outside of
  51. the platform and its user friendly interface that also includes many tutorials,
  52. you have access to many resources on the free account, including
  53. videos.
  54. Images and templates and templates are available for students
  55. to use the cons of this platform or that it's
  56. not mobile friendly and that it is difficult to
  57. annotate other people's projects without completely making changes yourself.
  58. So going forward,
  59. my plans for the classroom integration of these platforms is that
  60. I can use the presentations platforms such as present in Canada
  61. to make access for educators and access for students to media
  62. literacy more visually appealing and easier
  63. to comprehend through making presentations,
  64. posters flyers and other resources that schools can use
  65. in order to gain a better understanding of media literacy
  66. allows for the ability for differentiation.
  67. So students can create different types of
  68. projects through these platforms such as posters,
  69. presentations flyers except brochures,
  70. there are accommodations available to be made so that I
  71. can make give students certain accessibility to certain documents,
  72. certain
  73. uh
  74. certain idea boards and that media literacy can be taught using these platforms by
  75. asking students to reflect on their understandings
  76. as we progress through our media literacy
  77. units and that
  78. resources can be made for educators as well through these platforms.
  79. Yeah,
  80. so in my own practice,
  81. what I will do with this new
  82. knowledge that I've gained throughout this canvas course
  83. is I will advocate for technology integration,
  84. make accommodations for my students,
  85. change up my lesson plans using various digital
  86. platforms and educate others on digital media literacy.
  87. The only way that students are going to gain
  88. more confidence in their media literacy is through practice.
  89. And I believe that by allowing students to use these
  90. different platforms as a space to perform educational tasks,
  91. that they can develop their
  92. confidence in media literacy.
  93. So overall, I do believe it is really important to integrate
  94. digital platforms in a regular classroom use and by offering variety.
  95. we can accommodate for all types of learners.
