TPACK Virtual Tour

  • What is the content you’ll be using in your lesson

The content I will be teaching is Social Studies, Fifth Grade, Standard 2, Objective 2a. Plot a time line of the key events of the Revolutionary War
  • What is the pedagogy you’ll be using and why is it a good fit with the content?
Students will observe, record, and make predictions. This ties in perfectly with the content because they will observe Revolutionary War sites, record what occurred at each location, and predict how it affected the war so they can create a time line.

  • What is the technology you’ll be using and why is it a good fit with the content and pedagogy?
THe technology I will use is Google Earth to make a virtual tour. This is a great tool to use to teach the students about the Revolutionary War because they can observe where the key events took place, see what happened at each place so they can record it, and predict how it affected the war so they can create time lines.
