30. Where am I personally in knowledge and use of educational technology? Exploring Your Personal Technology, Pedagogy, Content Intersections Create a googleDoc of your own and title it ‘YourName TPACK Intersections’, spend 5-10 minutes self-assessing where you are in terms of the four areas of intersection in the courses you teach.

34. Which educational technologies would best help students in my classroom? What do I want for my students and what do I want from/of them? Create a googleDoc of your own, and title it ‘YourName Curricular Thoughts and Resonances’, in it, spend a few minutes addressing the subtitle of this section (feel free to copy-past/borrow from and expand any writing that you did in anticipation of this workshop).
35. Which educational technologies would best help students in my classroom? What do I want for my students and what do I want from/of them? Look at the Curriculum section of the shared googleDoc file titled ‘Pedagogical and Curricular Fit’. See what kinds of connections you make between your perspective on curriculum and different perspectives in the field of Curriculum.
36. Which educational technologies would best help students in my classroom? What do I want for my students and what do I want from/of them? Which perspectives do you draw upon the most? When? Add a few sentences about your curricular style and how/when it aligns with different styles in the field to ‘YourName Curricular Thoughts and Resonances’.
37. Which educational technologies would best help students in my classroom? What is my teaching style and approach to learning?
38. Which educational technologies would best help students in my classroom? What is my teaching style and approach to learning?

45. Which educational technologies would best help students in my classroom? What different technologies might fit with or compliment my style? Brainstorm and write down some technologies that you already know, may have used as a learner or educator, or are thinking about using. You could expand the list of technologies from the earlier activity.
46. Which educational technologies would best help students in my classroom? What different technologies might fit with or compliment my style? Open the shared GoogleDoc file named ‘Pedagogical and Curricular Fit’. In the document, add/categorize some of the technologies you jotted down. Organize them under the different Pedagogical and Curricular categories. Note: since many technologies/software applications/processes can be used under different pedagogies and curricular approaches, add a brief description of how you see the technology used in the spirit of that category.

Check your email to see if anyone has shared their document with you, take a few minutes to read it and give them feedback about their writing based on the guidance they gave you at the top of their document. You will have a little time to do this both before and after lunch.
64. Using online peer assessment to help students and reduce assessment time How do peer-based assessments work? Finish giving feedback and take a look at the feedback you received on your document.
