I teach AP Biology, Human Anatomy and College Prep Biology
Position:
Educator
Needs:
Computers that will allow the students to create content based on the 21st Century Skills Framework.
My Philosophy:
I feel students should demonstrate their understanding on the content through the use of products and demonstrations. These take a variety of forms but should include the latest in technology. Student created podcasts and interactive animations (Scratch, Flash, Microworlds) are one way to demonstrate learning.
