Assignment: Group Presentation This will be a microteaching experience. Divide into 6 groups, one group for each of the following: Group 1 and 2: Creativity (2 groups) Group 3 and 4: Communication and Collaboration (2 groups) Group 5: Research and Information Fluency Group 6: Digital Citizenship

Each group will gather online resources that will support students in meeting the assigned standard. The group will pick one Web 2.0 tool. You will prepare a mini-lesson for the class to learn how to use this tool. As a group, write a lesson plan for teaching the class how to use this tool.

In summary, your group will present on your assigned topic. Your presentation has two parts: 1. Online Resources (at least 5 good resources) 2. Microteaching - Teach the class how to use one tool. Your microteaching session will have an introduction, presentation, practice, and sharing of finished products.

Keep your presentation within 20 minutes. We will be strict with time.
