CT English Standards 9 through 12
For this class I would like to focus on standard 2e. which states that students will "Maintain a multimedia portfolio which, along with providing a means for collecting their work, provides opportunities for student reflection and teacher/student dialogue regarding the students’ creative processes." I feel that this standard fits in nicely with the idea of using technology to further understanding of literature as well as cultivates discussions between students and teachers. Multimedia portfolios could be created around a single book the class is reading that incorporates manipulated photos, youtube videos, refective blogs and communication as a class or on a one to one basis. Students could also create this kind of assignment with books that they have read on their own or in groups. Asking kids to create a multimedia portfolio allows them to work with their own strengths and interests and helps make the results eclectic and interesting for the teacher and other students to view. Lastly, the portfolios would be a finished product that kids could share with their parents or friends and provides them with something to build on if they so desire.
