Week
31: What
is Multimedia?
Homework
for the Teacher
Welcome
to the exciting world of multimedia! For the last six weeks of TechKnow
Park, you and your students will explore the nuts and bolts of multimedia,
learn how to plan for and create a multimedia product (based on the
theory of Multiple Intelligences), and will evaluate the process
along with the final product.
Reading
Strategy Spotlight
Empower! Help
students use a variety of "fix-it" strategies to repair comprehension
breakdowns independently. Listen to students describe
their reading problems and then respond by modeling techniques
to address the problems. Ellin Keene and Susan Zimmermann, authors
of Mosaic of Thought, describe reading problems that go
beyond the failure to decode words and understand their meanings.
Refer to their chart, on pages 201-204, to understand the more
subtle features of reading obstacles and to see examples and
practical classroom solutions for each of those problems.
