3. Instructional Materials Overview
I will be doing my capstone on an After School
Program. The capstone will consist of Bringing
Technology into an After School Program. The
group of learners will be K- 6th
graders. The
materials I will be using are: Computers, smart
boards, paper, pencils, markers and slides. I will be
doing a power point presentation. The power point
will teach the children how use and navigate the
computer.
4. Overview continue
It will also introduce them the key terms to looking
up information on the internet. I will be using the
computer to project the screen to show the power
point presentation. The power point will be shown
on a smart board. A smart board is a line of
interactive whiteboards that uses touch detection for
user input in the same way as normal PC input
devices. The paper and pencils along with the slide
handouts will be used to take the notes for future
use. The markers will be used to write on the smart
boards.
5. Overview continue
Even though the presentation will be for the whole
group there will be times where they will have time
on the computer by themselves. The group
presentation is to test the learners to see where they
stand far as computer knowledge. After the pretest,
the learners will be broken up into groups far as
computer knowledge, that’s where the self pace
learners will come in at. The self pace learners will
have some time to work on things they need extra
help with. There will also be self paced learners that
will help the others who need that extra help.
6. Overview continue
The learners will be given an activity where they will
use their materials to draw and write a story. The
learners will use the paper, pencil and markers to
draw a sketch of what they want their drawing to
look like and then they will use the computer to
navigate to type out their story and copy and paste a
picture according to their drawing. Doing these
things will help the learners learn how to type on the
computer and surf the web.
