This is is the last of my free inquiries for this session. This will be a short retrospection about my navigation inquiry. I had lots of fun creating this Inquiry because I know it will be so useful for me in the future when I teach navigation. It’s also a starting point because I’ll be…
For this lesson, I will focus on how different cultures used constellations to navigate the world. This could include a PowerPoint to clarify some main points such as how what the world constellation means, how we see the stars at night-time (and sun), and how the seasons change what appears on the sky map. Other…
Wow. The last weekly reflection of this class. Time flies! Also, there are tap-keyboards. Which is a versatile form of typing which are essentially a set of rings around each of the person’s fingers with sensors. That way, the person doesn’t need to have the keyboard directly in front of them. According to the UC…
Intro to using a compass This post will be about how to teach a lesson on using a compass. Depending on the skill level this will explain a simple activity and be more exploring the parts. If there are enough compasses, then each student will have one. If there are a handful, then there would…
For this lesson, I thought I would write more a reflection that would be a precursor to using the compass. This is based off a lesson that we had in Teaching Physical Education and Health that combines P.E and Language Arts (french). For the first activity, the class is divided into small teams (3-4 people)….
Today is March 2nd 2026. I’m going to reflect back about our discussions last Friday about the SAMR model, and voice my thoughts about the TPACK model. To refresh my memory, SAMR signifies: Substitution, Augmentation, Modification, and Redefinition. In regards to the model’s effectiveness, theses steps make sense when integrating technology to add to lesson…
For week 6 of EDCL 336, I attended the IDÉLLO presentation, LIVE-IT Bilingual place-based learning, and Privacy Essentials. I enjoyed all three of the presentations because I was able to project and imagine myself using these websites and information sources for once I am teaching full-time. As a student teacher candidate, I feel like these…
For this lesson, I will be focusing on observational awareness. This will be useful for filling in some of the more obvious senses before we look towards more complex systems of navigation. I may want to consider having this as the first lesson, since it should be the most simple out of the unit. The…
For this lesson, students would focus on using GPS applications (or, in french: système de repérage universel) on their tablets if they have access to them. The first part would start with a discussion in the classroom, and I would create a lexical field to write down vocabulary words of what GPS. I would ask…
