This
curriculum web is designed to be used in a lab setting. Each
student will
be using their own computer. As an introduction to the unit,
students will be guided through an
orientation of
the website. This will serve not only as an introduction to the
"CELL" curriculum web, but also as an assessment of students'
technological skills.
There are non-internet
activities that will be used, and if necessary, the order
of lessons can be changed in order to deal with any technical
glitches that may arise. I intend to work closely with the technical
coordinator at the school regarding lab time, and maintaining
and improving the site.
Students will be given
guidelines of expectations regarding performance and behavior.
If students misbehave, they will lose the privilege of working
on the computers for a specified amount of time. If the poor
behavior continues, they will lose priveleges entirely, and be
given an alternate assignment.
The final project will
include oral presentations by each student. Each student will
demonstrate in-depth knowledge of the function, location, and
relation to other organelles, of their part. This will be done
in the StarLab with the cell cylinder. Students will also be
assessed informally throughout the unit.
