Capstone Project - Day Two

Today you will participate in a pilot study for the GACE Computer Skill Competency Test.

If you are using your late pass, WebQuests are due today. PowerPoint Game grades were returned during today's class - if you made below an 80 and would like to resubmit your grade, it is due Thursday, April 19. If you have resubmitted previous work, it will be returned to you on Tuesday, April 24.

Please make sure you have read the chapter distributed in class last Tuesday in preparation for work on your Capstone project. During Thursday's class, we will review the major components of the project and discuss what project you will choose to write about for your Capstone.You will use the ASSURE model as your lesson plan format. I have created a web page that will walk you through the development process step-by-step. You can view the actual project description and grading rubric.

1. Read the chapter about the ASSURE model.
2. Begin working on your Capstone Project.
