For the NTeQ assignment I used this template for the previous week three assignment. I modified what I did earlier to satisfy the objectives of the week 5 assignment. The template does offer help for utilizing the technology standards. It asks all the questions for input so the user simply needs to input prepared data and the website formats the lesson plan for use. It was fairly simple once I figured out the nuances of what it was asking for. This planning tool allows for clear objectives and aligns them in a way that will aid the teacher in lessons. The finished lesson plan is easy to understand and is designed in a way that it can be shared with other teachers for future lessons. Once students have clear objectives for what is expected of them and how they will be assessed, they will have guidelines for a successful experience. In my lesson Microsoft Powerpoint, Google, various music websites, and YouTube were the modes of technology that were used. The web based sites were used for research, Power point for the presentation, and youtube (or iTunes) for the music sample portion of the presentation. I feel that the lesson planner aids in preparing for a lesson and helps the teacher stay organized. I plan to use this lesson this year for my music appreciation class, and I will try to use this template for the guide to preparation. I will also share this planner with my colleagues during planning meetings.
