Teacher/ETT || Generate Questions/ Create game || Students create questions related to understanding of academic content and/or lack of understanding. Use questions to quiz peers, parents, teachers. || Word, VoiceThread, blog (kidblog, blogger), wiki (wikispaces, pbworks), iPod Touch (free eFlashcard app), webquest || [Steve, The Mighty Section 3] I love GeoGebra. My students used GeoGebra, then created an xtranormal movie to share the properties of parallelograms http://madeiramath2.wikispaces.com/xtranormal+movies || Administrator || staff meeting(s) presentation focused on technology integration || A staff meeting(s) would be used to discuss technology integration in the classroom. Members of this grant team would give a presentation regarding TPACK and demonstrate some current technology tools available for staff use. || A wiki could be set up and used for staff communication regarding the various tools and their thoughts on technologyintegration. Podcasts and Youtube could also be used to set up technology tutorials for staff to learn more about the technology options available. || Clay HS || Collaborate on an inquiry activity || In small groups or the entire class, they could brainstorm the evidence of past scientists, Watson and Crick, to deduce what the structure of DNA looks like. || Students could use voicethread or wikispaces if they were collaborating at a different times. If this project was done during class, chatter.com. || NCH High School || Evaluate a Performance (Complete a Review Activity) || In small groups or indivudally the students will evaluate one of their own performances for for musicality, artistic expression, and areas in need of improvement. || voicethread, imovie, podcast, youtube videos,Itunes || Piqua High School || Review vocabulary terms in Geometry Class. || One important aspect of geometry is the importance of all the new terms that are introduced during the first quarter of the geometry class. In the past, students have had to keep track of vocab words via notecards. || Utilizing both voicethread and wordle, students can develop different ways to familiarize themselves with all the vocab words. In addition, creating a table in a Wiki similar to this one, would be a very valuable resource. || Woodward HS || Solving Math Problems || There are several times in my Algebra 2 classes where a problem is dependent upon a similar problem they solved before. I usually ask them to try to find their notes or find someone else's to look at the work before I give any assistance || Utilizing blogs could make this a non-issue for me, as the students' notes could be already loaded on the blog, and the student could look up the example without even asking me for help. || North College Hill || Compare and Contrast || Identify the characteristics of quadrilaterals and discover the similarities and differences || Using GeoGebra for discovering characteristics, blogs or a class wiki to share thoughts. || Trotwood H.S. || Research with Class Presentation || My students do two presentations per semester in my Science of Disease classes. One is on a virus, the second on a bacterial disease. They can work independently, or with a partner, but they must present their research to the class and answer guiding questions. || Students could collaborate in pairs using Googledocs to produce classroom presentations. I also would like to figure out a way to create a Facebook template in Googledocs, and have them create a Facebook page for their virus/bacteria. They could link to each other as friends, and further develop a collective understanding of how viruses and bacteria operate in human society. || TMHS || Life Planning Autobiography- Do You Know Who You Are? || Students work independently first to write a story about their life. Sharing a glimpse of their futures. || Students could use either a Wiki, Google Docs, Importing Voice Threads to learn about each of their classmates. Leaving little notes, questions, to each other to build collaboration during the first weeks of school. Then taking it a step further, opening it up to family, the community, world beyond, etc. || Rogers HS || Research a Group Topic and Respond || Students would work independently researching a specific topic. || Students would post and discuss researched information on a Wiki, Blog, or Voice Thread and share the info for a group project. Then collaborate and the information would be combined to create the final project. || Trotwood-Madison High School || Create group project || I have my Physics students create a children’s book about Newton’s Laws. It need to be 3rd or 4th grade level. They would work in groups. || I could see this expanding into comic strips and cartoons. The students could collaborate by using GoogleDocs or Wiki. They could present their project using Voice Thread, Xtranormal, GoogleDocs Video, and Flip Cameras. This would create a new avenue in which to share with the elementary students. || NCH Social Studies || Research and Presentation || My Psychology students research an assigned mental disorder and create a powerpoint that includes video clips, images, and music. When finished, they present to the class. || Prezi, Powerpoint, Google Docs (students can choose any of these three formats); Youtube, iPods, computer lab, white board. || Piqua HS Physical Science || Group Projects and presentations || My physical science students created a presentation on Renewable energy resources. They use powerpoint presentations and must include pictures, diagrams and charts. || The use of voice threads would be fantastic for this project. Also could use Prezi, Wikis, iMovies, Podcasts, Google Earth for maps of areas. Could also have discussions in Wikis as well. || Rogers High School || Geometry Review on Circles || I have a jeopardy game on powerpoint used to review the terms and concepts of the circles chapter. || I think that the jeopardy game could be adapted to a solitaire kind of game and posted on a wiki so that students could review on their own. Maybe scores could be posted with no names and students could try to beat other's scores. || North College Hill ++ again couldn't go below || Music presentation || After listening to war propaganda - they will create their own songs for or against the war || videos, video camera, internet, http://www.firstworldwar.com/audio/index.htm, google docs || Woodward HS || Administrator || Staff meeting and collaboration via Google Docs/Wiki || E-Tech team will present our current project and share with staff showing them how to use Google Docs and Wikis. We will indroduce our project to them and set up the Google Doc and Wiki for them to participate ||
 * **Participant Name** || **Activity Type** || **Brief Description** || **Possible Technologies** ||
 * Cheryl Ward || Listen to Audio || Students listen to recordings of speeches, music, radio broadcasts, oral histories, and lectures; digital or non-digital || Podcasts (“Great Speeches in History,” etc.), Audacity, Garageband, Odeo, Evoca, Podcast People ||
 * Teacher || Peer Feedback || In my class students give each other peer feedback on a writing project, but it would be great to do this electronically. || I may consider a wiki where they would post their writing and then others could comment sort of non private? Could use Google Docs and peers could comment using the comment option and it would be more private. ||
 * Annette Marino/Stanton Middle School || Math Game || Students would create a math review game on a particular unit including math concepts and vocabulary || Students could use smart powerpoint templates, puzzlemaker to design their game, as well as, Google Docs and/or Wiki to communicate with their group members sharing ideas and editing their work ||
 * Tina Norris/Coventry || View Presentation || Parents (my audience) view a presentation designed to educate them about the set up of the school, procedures and the type of experience they can expect for thier child in an orientation style gathering. || iMovie, Voice Thread to incorporate student perspectives, Power Point, Digital Imaging ||
 * Kathleen Morrison, Woodward HS || Solving Math Problems || For a change of pace, students could share their understanding and show their work to the class in ways that get one away from a marker board/chalk board. || Using the Elmo (document camera), using TI SmartView to demonstrate their use of graphing calculators, using spreadsheets to create graphs and pictorial representations of their work to be viewed by their peers. ||
 * Michael Csehi || View Presentation || Parents view a presentation providing information, from teachers/administrators about the Transforming Education curriculum which their children will be experiencing. synchronous/asynchronous,oral or multimedia. || iPad, iMovie, Voice Thread to incorporate student perspectives, Power Point,Digital Imaging ||
 * Nicole Deshuk/Woodward || analyze data || students gather data on several countries and have to analyze their findings and present their results || powerpoint, google earth,photostory, Inspiration, Google docs (to track if working with a partner), videoconferencing ||
 * Jeff Thompson / Administrator || Staff Meeting || Staff attend a monthly meeting in the Library/Media Center to hear presentation from principal regarding technology in the classroom. || Voice Thread to introduce the concepts to staff, Demonstation of Moodle, google docs and wiki's for team projects and view the YouTube video covering TPACK concepts. ||
 * Steve Bialorucki / Administrator || show a staff member how to deliver a pre-lesson || Meet with staff member working on improvement strategies in Culinary Arts. Introduce a pre-lesson for students to discuss for next week by implementing different technology. || Use a Wiki for student input on a lesson previewed by students at "FreeCulinarySchool.com" (or use downloaded podcasts from the same source) regarding techniques or questions raised prior to the lesson. ||
 * Rene' Steingraber/
 * Bridget Smith Teacher/ Rogers || Group Discussion || In small to large groups, either as an entire class or in smaller groups students engage in dialogue with their peers about class readings and reading analysis questions. This could be cross curricular as the team works together to create a cohesive unit. || A class or teacher generated Wiki could be set up for students. Students could also set something up in Google Docs for this task. ||
 * Peggy Rybarczyk Math Woodward HS || Investigate a concept || Students explore or investigate a concept (such as parallelograms) and come up with the properties of the parallelograms while in groups. || Students would be able to use Geogebra to investigate parallelograms. The students could then use a Wike to write what properties they discovered until all the properties were found.
 * Jeanette Utter Teacher/ Rogers HS || Lab Report || Students work in groups of 4 to perform a lab investigation and then analyze the data to create a lab report. || Students could use either Wiki or Google Docs to collaborate on their lab report. These can then be shared with the class so that they can then take part in a peer review process that is essential to the doing of science in the real world. ||
 * Megan Barr || Cell Project || Create a game on your own (or "rework" a game from your childhood) to review/remember the organelles in a cell || Students could create a power point Jeopardy game. We have a few for OGT and students can model this if they have no idea where to begin. They can use any type of technology to "invent" a game. They may even be able to make a video game of some sort. This is where the students would have a better understanding of where to find some good sources of technology. We could all share the games on a Google Doc. Some ideas could be YouTube or podcasts to present their games. ||
 * Chris Barr / Piqua HS || Review Games || I typically play a review game using Penga. If the students get a question right they don't have to pull off a block. If they miss a question they have to pull out a block. The team that gets the least amount of blocks pulled before the tower falls gets 5 points extra credit on the test or a prize if they so choose. || Instead of me making up the questions for the review game, the students could create their own questions that could be loaded somehow into a student response system such as turning point. ||
 * Kelly Welch
 * Nathan Ellis/Clay HS || Math State Assessment Review || It is common for teachers to give math OGT practice problems of short answer and extended response in class. Many times these questions are complex and students need assistance. A teacher could post a daily question online, and allow students to collaborate and work together to solve this even when they are not in school. Grades can be issused on participation and bringing up vaild ideas to the discussion. || Voicethread would be a great technology with the drawing tool and students have more ways to express their ideas. A wiki, online calculator, and the ODE database of past OGT questions can also be used for this activity. ||
 * Thom Ziems/ CSCHS/ Clay || Math Review || Chapter or unit review, designed to recap all of the ideas, and topics that need to show mastery on a cumulative review. I have sometimes used this in a game format such as Jeopardy, or what I call "Survivor Review". || I think the idea of a "review" as we know it could change all together. Instead of spending as much time in a class block going over and often reteaching material that we have already learned, I think I can utilize moodle, and wikis to make a log of notes and lessons that we have done in class. Giving students full access to all of these items, and making myself more accessible by doing so could revolutionize test prep, and lesson planning as I know it. ||
 * Jim Mills/Trotwood High School || Create a performance video || In small groups students analyze characters in a play by August Wilson or Thornton Wilder then perform and video their interpretation of the characters in a short scene from the play. The videos are then posted online so that the whole class can view and discuss the various interpretations of the individual characters. || Moviemaker, iMovie, Flipshare, Voicethread, Google Docs videos, Wikispaces ||
 * Sherry Karamol
 * James Rodgers
 * Marcus Bixler
 * Maurice (Mike) Young
 * Kara Graham
 * Debby Hartwell
 * Mary Drayer
 * Caine/Clay High School || Paper Towel testing using scientific method || students work to develop a method for determining which paper towel is the best. They design an experiment, carry it out then present their results and methodology to the class to be critiqued by the student science community. || Students could use voice thread to make their presentations and then have others comment on voice thread. Alternatively, they could still present in class and use a wiki to offer critiques. Also posting ideas as the students work on a wiki will allow for some improvements in the process as they go. ||
 * Sue Rahn, Trotwood-Madison HS || Produce an Artifact || (from a grade 5 math teacher) a group of 4 or 5 students combine and average various body measurements to create a life-size paper “average” student; incorporating use of a spreadsheet and formulas. Using butcher paper and newspaper as stuffing, the students put together their “body”. || imaging tools, a 3-D drawing and or animation program ||
