General Actions:
Brief introduction to the learning scenario:
| Title of the scenario | To use the Internet, to communicate and to build and maintain networks for teaching and learning. |

| Keywords describing the topic of the scenario | |
Applicationin educational context Has this learning scenario already been practiced in lessons? Give examples of the learning scenario in use:
| |
Targeted educational sector:
| 1. primary and secondary education |
Learners' special characteristics e.g. students:
| experienced teachers aged 40+ or those with more than 20 years of teaching experience but who have little experience of using ICT in the learning process (this group includes most teachers in Europe) |
|
|
Specific educational objectives e.g. make students acquire:
|
|
| Narrative/sequential description of the learning activities (Important! Could be a longer text) | Overall task: teachers are required to plan, deliver and evaluate a lesson where the students have to use collaborative and informative Internet-tools.
Task 2 (re criterion 1): Undertake a brief, informal survey of the existing digital skill levels of the students. This could take the form of group work.
Task 3 (re criterion 1): Review what tools students use to share information in a group environment. Select a learning activity that students would normally undertake in groups.
Task 4 (re criterion 2): Propose/integrate the most suitable communication digital tools to develop the learning activity. Involve the students in this process.
Task 5 (re criterion 1): Discuss and agree with your students on appropriate monitoring protocols (norms, times and roles) for a group work
Task 6 (re overall task): Describe the concrete lesson as a teaching plan (one day – one week). - Describe the plan (activities, time, material, etc.) - Describe the choices you made along the way (reflection) - Evaluate the lesson Hand in the teaching plan including reflections on choices the teachers had to make in the building of your plan. |
Learning resources involved e.g.
|
|
Wiki application to create content (not to confuse with "Learning resources involved") Which wiki software do the students use to create content, that is, writing and collaborating? Wiki software could for example mean:
Clarification: wiki application versus wiki online learning resource You can use Wikipedia both as a learning resource to aquire knowledge from, but also as a working tool where you do your assignment (if students have user accounts on Wikipedia and the assignment for example is to improve articles on Wikipedia). Then Wikipedia is the learning resource and MediaWiki (which Wikipedia is built upon) is used as a wiki application to create content. Another option is to use Wikipedia as a learning resource but for example Wikispaces as a working tool for the class where they report their findings about Wikipedia. Then Wikipedia is the learning resource and Wikispaces is used as a wiki application to create content.

Other ICT applications involved e.g. standard computing programs like
| |
Infrastructure / equipment e.g.
|
|
Prerequisite competences e.g. to be familiar with
| basic computer skills |
Evaluation approach e.g.
|
|
Typical learning time e.g.
| 5 sessions (online and face-to-face) |
Typical learning location e.g.
|
|
| Other aspects to consider | |
| Opportunities and obstacles identified during the implementation of the scenario |
