1. **Facilitate and Inspire Student Learning and Creativity**
- Nature Trail: The classroom lesson could be nature and the world's impact on nature and the environment. Digital photos can be taken by the students to document what they find on the school's nature trail that can be related back to former information learned within the classroom - Allow students to use computers to play educational games - Let students use specific programs on the computer to create a virtual book instead of a paper book **2. Design and Develop Digital-Age Learning Experiences and Assessments** - Allow students to take online tests: easy way for students to see their results/easy to grade (able to spend more time helping student instead of grading their work) - Make sure students are aware of fun appropriate and educational websites that they could use outside the classroom to help them improve and practice classroom material - Email, blackboard - Use videos for communication purposes both to students and parents - Demostrate how to use smartboard by using it in the classroom and then allow students to use it for their times to share their work with the class
 * 3. Model Digital-Age Work and Learning **

**4. Promote and Model Digital Citizenship and Responsibility**
- Time needs to be spent to make sure all students are understanding technology (positives, negatives, dangers) - By working correctly with technology in the classroom and showing that you understand all the rules that come along with technology your students will understand the importance of using technology the way you show them to use it - Be diverse in what digital tools you choose for your class
