modules

The "Modules" section is a rich component of the "Student Site" because of the variety of items included here for teachers.

The "Creating a Module: A Personal Journey" provides a personal essay by a college professor in which he describes the process of writing a module for a science lesson incorporating technology.

The "Modules for K-12 Classroom Use" provides access to some lessons for K-12 classrooms in the areas of communications, humanities, math and science. The K-12 lessons evolved from earlier lesson concepts planned for the college level. Since the original college lessons are also available to you under the next two sections, you can make comparisons and see how transferability was accomplished. [NOTE: If you click on the "Resources" tab at the top of this introduction page and then select "Transferability," you will find both a short list of concepts for transferring an instructional technique from one curriculum or grade level to another along with a more comprehensive chart of transferability suggestions.]

The "Complete List of Modules" provides access to the 111 modules sorted by discipline and broken down by specific courses in which they can be used.

The "Index of Modules with Standards" lists all 111 modules, the course for which they were developed, the state and national standards which are addressed in each module, the type of technology that was used, the name of the developer, and a link for downloading the module in PDF format for easy printing.

The "Module Report Form" provides a template to use when designing your own lessons. This is the basic template that was used by the original module developers. The template tells what courses the activities were designed for, issues to be aware of when using the modules, how to implement the modules, the expense involved, and how much skill in technology is needed by the teacher and the student.
