(1) Record Keeping: Teachers have a professional responsibility to monitor, record and communicate student progress. Many schools and districts have adopted networked grading systems, and some publish grades on secure websites.

Use a your school's gradebook program to develop a report for a real or hypothetical class of ten or more students who are assessed on five or more assignments. Submit a printout of your gradebook and the detailed report card (progress report) for an individual student. If you do not have access to such a program, you may use Gradekeeper or download a sample shareware "gradebook" program.

(2) Assessment: Teachers must regularly assess student progress. Many textbook publishers make test construction easier by providing test generators, software which allows the teacher to quickly compose tests and keys from question databases. Test generators allow the teacher to input questions, and often provide databases of questions the teacher can select from. *TPE-tip A well-structured exam may be used as an artifact for TPE3, Interpretation and Use of Assessments.

Use a test generator to construct an exam composed of questions you have selected from existing question banks.

Software such as Examview allows teachers to develop tests and post them on the Internet. Take this short physics quiz generated with the Examview, or this geology quiz made with Quizmaker. Include a screen capture of your score (actual score is inconsequential) and discuss the benefits and problems associated with online testing.

(3) Communication: Students benefit when teachers clearly state their expectations in written form. When these expectations are availalbe on the Internet, all students and parents can benefit, particularly students who have been absent. A variety of commercial resources exist with which teachers can post calendars, homework assignments, and other important documents.

Put your class assignments on the web at Yourhomework , SchoolNotes or similar service. Include a screen capture of your published assignment schedule.

(4) Presentations: Presentation software provides teachers the opportunity to display text and graphics in a slide show fashion. PowerPoint and Keynote are two of the most popular presentation tools. Teachers and professors make extensive use of presentations, but many are concerned about the potentially negative effects such presentations can have on instruction. *TPE-tip A well developed educational presentation can serve as an artifact for TPE 4, Making Content Accessible, or TPE 10, Instructional Time, if used with presenter tools.

After reading the articles on the educational use and abuse of presentation software, summarize how presentations should be constructed and delivered to maximize learning and minimize abuse.

Locate and download one or more PowerPoint presentations relevant to your teaching needs. Include the URL of the location from which you obtained them and summarize the PowerPoint and where in your curriculum you will use it.

Make a PowerPoint presentation to teach a lesson in your subject area, keeping in mind the principles you have outlined above and the guidelines provided (see tutorial). Your presentation should include numerous graphics and be at least 10 slides in length. (a) Provide an electronic copy of your presentation (ppt format) on your website. (b) Embed screen captures of your presentation in the template. Make sure the content is easy to read.

Using iPhoto (Mac), Picasa (Windows), or similar slide viewer software, create a photo library for your discipline. You should include photos you have taken plus ones retreived from a graphic search engine. Create two or three slide shows from the library. Include a screen shot of the slide sorter window for one of your shows. Create a photopage for your website.

1) The way power point can increase maximum learning is by making is clear for the students to understand. They need to be important topic and easy for them to read. Don’t have some thing with more than 6 lines in it. Also the colors you pick have to do a lot with what you are teaching in your class room. Make sure that important information is clear for the student. Another to maximize learning is by not abusing it it’s a great tool but you need to know when to use it or not. Its perfect for reviewing information in a test. Also is good to give your students a hard copy of your power point presentation for their notes. A way to minimize abuse is by not making the power point the most important part of your lesson. It needs to support what you are teaching not be the only tool you use when you teach.

2) Music Term Power Point –I will use this power point in all my class when teaching student about the basic musical terms. It also has great information about the terms that is going to help my students understand them better.www.musiceducationmadness.com/downloads/Musical%20Terms.ppt

(6) DVD: Develop a lesson using a computer-based DVD-player that includes bookmarks and video clips to access speficic scenes.

Itentify the DVD and explain why you chose this for a lesson.

Include a screen capture showing your catalog of bookmarks and video clips.

Describe how the scan fast, scan slow, step, mute, bookmark, video clip, and screen size features can be used to enhance your lesson.

1) I pick the DVD because it has the music written by John Williams. Its great if I want students to listen to a great movie composer.

3) Scan Fast-can enhance your lesson because the students can see how the sun moves a cross the ski f you where giving a lesson in how the shadows change in the day. Scan Low-Its great if you want to slow down the action and see in slow motion. Bookmark is a good tool to use when teaching a lesson because it allows you to be select specific section in the movie and go right to them with having to wait. Movie Clip is a good tool because you can record a video clip form you movies and add it to another program great to me power point lessons. Screen size can also be used in your lesson because you can show more than on thing at a time in you lesson.
