Hi Folks,

I am Jasmine Audrey Matterson. I have been teaching high school English for 19 years. I am really excited about what I am learning in this technology class. This page contains files created to demonstrate my ability to use various technologies in web 1.0 and 2.0

__1. This is an outline of my unit plan created in Inspiration__.

To : Dr. Reynolds Re: Changes in Unit Plan

I have changed a few of the technologies that I used initially, for various reasons. I added an interactive aspect to publisher and word for seting, characterization and theme, because I wanted them to utilize their wiki, igoogle and NING pages as much as possible. I also wanted to include some web 2:0 activities into the unit so that there could be more interaction. It is alo a paperless way for me to give feedback about their work.

I changed the technology for the conflict from a Blurb to a photo story. I wanted students to have hands on experience with making a movie and be able to see how significant the conflict is to a story. The idea is that as they make the movie they see the stages in the conflict development such as rising action, climax, falling action and resolution. This I feel will help them relate structurer and sequencing to their own story writing skills. Since they have to narrate the story they will gain experince with point of view as they write the story from a particular perspective. The corelation between the visual and the written will concretize the process in their mnds as they work to create the product.
