• Applying Standard I to Instruction

1. Share the lessons that you brought to the workshop with your partner. You may save them to the desktop of your computer.
2. Now, consider the process you go through to produce the lesson. Any type of presentation requires that you first locate the specific information using standard research methods. It is inherent in Standard I that you can demonstrate competency in your research procedures. Secondly, that you can choose a vehicle (media) to effectively convey the content you have found. Lastly, these are the protocols you teach your students when you have them research a problem. The standard is looking at your skills and inherent ability to model the process.
   

• Discuss one of your lessons with your partner, discuss some of the problems you've had with this particular lesson and how you've taught it in the past.
  

• Next brainstorm about how you think you could infuse technology into the instruction to enhance student learning.
