Tik-a-tok Digital Book Making - 616

Tik-A-Tok Digital Book Building (K-5)

The key to integrating writing can be very hard.  Peason's Tik-a-tok Books are easy, fluid way of having students accomplish writing standards while integrating the prompts into your Social Studies, Science, Math and Literacy programs.  Tik-a-tok allows students to share their personal connections to your curriculum by responding to a series of teacher chosen or created prompts that they can then illustrate with their own self-drawn pictures, photos, or clip are.  It is a simple way to personalize learning.

Project Based Learning in the Digital Social Studies Classroom - 616

Project Based Learning in the Digital Social Studies Classroom (6-12)

 

The days of student projects being limited to a poster board or skit are numbered.  Twenty-first century students need to develop skills with both technology and collaboration as their digital world brings the geographical world-a little closer.  Project based learning is an impactful way of having students demonstrate their understanding and be involved in their learning.  We will demonstrate the multiple ways that Pearson has developed opportunities for students to do these types of activities brining project-based learning and the digital world together for our 21st Century classrooms.
