The document summarizes a technology lesson where students learned to identify the diphthongs "ew", "ue", and "au", "aw" using an interactive PowerPoint. While the teacher felt the lesson was fun, she had difficulty managing the students' excitement over the new technology. The teacher also reflected that gaining more experience with classroom management techniques could help address this issue in the future. Overall, the technology supported the learning objective and engaged the students, though it required significant time to create.

2. Learning Objective
• Students will know and be able to identify the
diphthongs ew, ue and au, aw.

15. Reflection
• I feel the lesson over all was very fun for the
kids, however, it was a little hard to contain
their excitement over the new technology.
• More experience and management
techniques could help prevent this problem.

16. Principles of Effective Technology
Integration
1. Students use technology
* The students were able to use this technology. They could actively erase
to see the diphthong.
2. Technology is essential
*The technology was not essential. This task could have been done in a
different way. I just felt that this would make the task more
interesting and memorable.
3. Focus on learning objective
*The technology was focused on the learning objective. The students
were able to obtain the desired objective.
4. Added value
*This powerpoint took a great deal of time to create, however, it can be
used again and again in the future. It will be worth the effort in time.
The students really did enjoy the experience.
