From information gleaned from course materials and online research. You will present an idea for using computer resources that your workplace has not yet purchased. After identifying the target student audience; grade level, individual, small or large group, etc., use information about technology solutions with high relative advantage for teaching/learning Technology Solutions with Potential for High Relative Advantage (Table 2.7, p. 56 of the text). Is the technology resource for problem-solving, drill and practice, simulation, etc. Discuss how this new technology resource will give students opportunities to gain new content, reinforce and enhance skills through drill and practice, use higher order thinking skills through creation of multimedia, problem solve through simulation etc. Explain the need and rationale for using this resource for diverse learners including accommodations for adaptive and assistive technologies. How does the resource align with it’s district and state curricula and district and state content and technology standards?
