Welcome to the MS Computer Lab Blog!
The objective of our blog is to share information about how we integrate our technology curriculum into the subject area curriculum. The foundation of this effort is the methodology of team teaching the lessons with the Middle School subject area teachers. Each post describes a particular lesson, the software used, some of the skills that were targeted, and the number of days that were spent in the lab.

Technology Portfolio
The 6th Grade students have created a portfolio in PowerPoint that they use to record what they learn when they visit the lab. At the beginning of the year, the students learn how to set up the portfolio in their Science class, however, the students can add slides about lessons from any subject area. The basic layout of the portfolio is that each lesson is represented by two slides: one slide is a screenshot of the document created, and the second slide is a paragraph that reflects on what the student learned and what he or she could do better the next time around.
