What are the next steps?
- Suggest History games to Zach (UTS history teacher) and give him time to explore them
- Meet with Zach to look at good fits between history games and history curriculum (e.g. grade? course? unit?) and decide on 1 (or 2-3?) games to focus on
- Create game-related activities for games (within SAMR framework)
- Play-test with students and make necessary changes to game-related activities
- Present to Cohort 21
- Present to UTS staff about the experience
When will I publish next?
- Tentatively next publications will take place coinciding with steps 2-6 above. Use feedback from Cohort 21 colleagues to move on to next steps and modify project.
How will I present my findings/exploration?
- Bring Zach to session? (is that possible?)
- Prezi?
- Video? (short interviews with students about their experiences)
Hi Mike,
Exciting stuff here. Which is why I have a few questions for you: (forgive my enthusiasm!):
I’d love to connect on this as well – what grade does your colleague teach? I’d love to be kept in touch on this, and maybe get a colleague at my school could give you some feedback too!
Thanks,
garth.
Hi Garth,
my colleague (Zach) teaches Gr.7. We would love feedback from you or any of your colleagues. I will write a post soon containing possible games and potential curriculum links and perhaps you could share this with your colleague(s). WDYT?
Mike
