Day 4

As we worked on creating a Science lesson using technology, we tried to focus our content on Astronomy, particularly the Moon's phases. We did so by using the technology of the computer program Stellarium. This technology provides some kids with an opportunity to look at the moon in a whole new way. From a pedagogical standpoint, the teacher will be playing the role of a supervisor. The students are in charge of their learning experience because they will be working independently on the assignment and researching on their own. The teacher is there to help with any questions and to encourage the class as a whole.
