This document provides a rationale for integrating technology into a unit on The Great Gatsby and the literary period of Modernism for an 11th grade class. It argues that using videos, online resources, and digital tools will help students better understand the historical context of the period and engage with the material. A variety of free digital resources are recommended, including educational websites, YouTube videos, blogs, podcasts, and collaborative applications to supplement lessons on themes, characters, and research.
Smartphones are in most pockets and purses, meaning teachers and administrators can meet students and parents where they are, putting valuable information about the school and classroom in the palms of their hands – literally. If a monthly newsletter is black and white television, tools like Remind, ClassDojo, and social media are Blu-Ray. In this session, Brent shares free, practical, and effective ways to connect students and parents to the amazing things taking place at school.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

2. Before reading The Great Gatsby, or any other novel, it is
imperative to understand the literary and historical context
in which the novel lives in. Some students glaze over the
historical context, simply because they don’t understand
the material. By showing videos of what was happening in
the time period, students will be able to fully grasp the
context and apply it to the novel.
Since we live in a generation of technology, students will
be more engaged
Since this unit will end in a research paper, it is important
to start using online resources to better prepare students
to conduct their own research

Great Gatsby. Each word is provided with a definition
and the sentence, and how the character is using the
word in the novel. Additionally, there are assignments
and games.

Podcasts and audio novels are great for students who do not read at the same pace as other students or for students who do not have English as a first language. Hearing the material rather than trying make sense of what you are reading is a great tool to use for a better understanding of the text.

CrashCourse can be applied to any subject, as there are a multitude of videos about any subject and any topic. This is a great source for students if they are confused or need to hear a different explanation of the topic. This is also good for the teacher because the teacher can see how to relate to students by watching these videos.
This Diagram/ Web was made with Inspiration. Since there are many relationships within the characters of the novel, this diagram will help students see how each of the characters connect. An assignment would be to write in the relationship on the lines. Such as, Nick and Daisy are cousins; George and Myrtle are married; etc. A final key will be given to the students after they complete the assignment. This helps students understand the characters more and the reasons for their actions. This is helpful for visual learners who need to see the relationships on paper in order to apply them.
