Transcript of When a teacher is struggling to do two things learn to use technology
The purpose of this Action Research Project is to show how easily computers can be accessible to
teachers and their students without impacting the instructional time in the classroom.
When a teacher is struggling to do two things
•learn to use technology
•learn to incorporate new practices into their repertoires
results don’t appear quickly
“Combining computer skills and the ability to use computers and other technology to improve learning,
productivity, and performance – has become as fundamental to a persons’ ability to navigate through society as traditional skills like reading, writing, and
arithmetic.”

The US Department of Education’s Getting America’s Students Ready for the 21st Century: Meeting the
Technology Literacy Challenge states:
reading writing arithmetic
In many instances we have technology in place at our schools. The challenge confronting schools is to
make teachers semi-computer literate.
Show the teachers how to use that knowledge to quickly and effectively create student usable
instructions enabling students to successfully and independently navigate throughout computer
projects that enhance established curriculum.
If the teachers do not know how to effectively use computer technology without hindering mandated
instruction, computers will remain idle.
Microsoft’s PowerPoint program allows the educator to accomplish this goal by quickly
creating instruction sheets that the students use to successfully complete assigned projects
throughout the curriculum.
I will research if the use of computers in the classroom results in higher test scores in
reading and writing. I will follow a sample of elementary students and track their progress
throughout Jr. High, High School, and College.
Then use the increase of test scores to motivate teachers to invest the time to learn how to
incorporate computers in the classroom curriculum.

into a Students PowerPoint into a Students PowerPoint Portfolio Portfolio
A common method of assessing a students current reading ability is give a timed fluency reading. Using Microsoft PowerPoint a teacher can easily create directions a student can follow to make a recording of themselves reading a selection of text and save it in the student’s personal computer portfolio.
The student, teacher,or parent can review the recording later at parent conferences, IEP meetings, and used during report card grading.
It is simple and quick to make easy to follow directions even you can follow.
I use screen shots or screen captures of the actual dialog boxes the student will use. This enables the student to see which buttons to push exactly as they will experience them on the screen.
This enables the teacher to quickly make directions that students can use to navigate throughout their portfolios to finish assignments and build their portfolio.
Today’s assignment
Make a Microsoft PowerPoint recording of a one minute fluency reading for your student
portfolio.
Open their PowerPoint portfolio
Insert a recording of them reading for one minute
Save their work in their portfolio
The student will accomplish this independently by following the
directions you create
The student will:
To create a picture of all or parts of your screen, hold down these keys. A plus sign (+) means keys are held down together.
Press these keys To do this
Create a picture file of the entire screen
Create a picture file of a rectangular section of the screen. (After pressing and releasing the key combination, drag across the part of the screen you want to take a picture of).
To copy a section of the screen or a window to the clipboard instead of saving it as a file, press the Control Key as press the key combination. ctrl
