This year 2008/2009 I worked with 4th grade. My students are 9-10 years old. · We used computers to find facts, pictures, and images about Colorado History and Science classes (Directed) · They explored Wikipedia and Google (Supervised) · They made banners for the presidential election and voted on line. (Personal Choice) · They wrote to publish short stories. (PC/Feedback) · They watched short documentaries from You Tube.(Directed) · They loved using the computers for painting, coloring, and creating short messages. However, I have to confess that using the computer in class was not easy. My students usually spent more time developing these exercises. Modeling, explaining, monitoring, and revising ended in three times more work. I am excited about using “wiki” in a way that I can see their progress while using the right amount of time! Cause time is limited in Elementary School.
