Below is an example of a Web 2.0 tool lesson plan
Web 2.0 Tool: SciLink Grade Level: 11 th or 12 th grade Title of Lesson: How to use SciLink to look up information for research projects. NETS Standard: This tool is covered under the standards of NETS Teacher Preparation: The preparation that needs to be done is making a profile on SciLink, and understands all the parts of the Web 2.0 tool so if the class asks questions. Also use screen shots and print them on paper to hand out to the class so they can use them as references when making their own profiles. Instruction Procedures: The class will have a packet of screen shots so they can follow along in the packet. As they are following along I will be going through the steps of setting up a profile, finding articles, authors, and scientists, and how to use this tool to make research projects easier. Assessment Plan: I will assess the class on if they successfully make a profile and use this tool as a resource in a research project. Also, on if they can look up articles relevant to a topic that I give them. Lesson Closure: At the end of the lesson, I will give them a topic that I want them to look up on SciLink and find a article that goes along with it. Sample Product: The topic is finding an article regarding bacteria and transmission. This page shows an article about a Bacteriapahge migration using vector transmission. So this will show me that the student knows how to use this tool. Justification of Web 2.0 tool: I chose to use this tool because it has to do with my major as well as it can be used in a Biology high school class. I wish I was aware of this tool when I was doing research projects because it is easy to use and it produces reliable sources.
