You are an environmental education teacher.
Your students are doing a collaborative project with students from another country using Information and Communication Technology (ICT).

You create an activity that requires your students to use presentation software to display pictures and videos of local birds. The students will then email the
presentation to the foreign students.
You discover that the file size of the presentation exceeds the size limit set by your email provider.
You want to ensure that the students can send the presentation by email.

Case Study 6
Overview
General Overview
You are a teacher at a school that recently introduced computers. The school requires that all teachers use the computers to enhance teaching and learning. Most
of the teachers in the school have no experience using technology in the classroom. You are familiar with ICT for personal use, but have limited experience
integrating ICT into learning activities.
Organizational Goals
The school wants to encourage all of the teachers to use the school’s computer lab and to integrate ICT into their learning activities. All of the teachers will do this
at their own pace, based on their level of competence and confidence.
Learning and Teaching Environment
Your students are between the ages of 7 and 9. The students are of mixed ability and are organized in classes of up to 35 students.
All of the students have basic computer skills and have their own email accounts hosted on different external providers. All of the students are aware of the
school’s acceptable use policy (AUP) for the use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT).
The school recently set up a computer lab. All of the computers are connected to a network. The layout of the computer lab is shown in the exhibit and includes a
projector and an interactive whiteboard. (See Exhibit 1)

Due to the high number of teachers and lessons in the school, you only have access to the computer lab for one lesson every two weeks.
The school plans to purchase more equipment and set up additional computer labs. The school also plans to introduce computers into standard classrooms.
Objectives

Learning objectives
The students will be able to:
identify symmetrical and asymmetrical shapes; and
differentiate between symmetrical and asymmetrical shapes.
Learning Activities
You recently taught a mathematics lesson on symmetrical shapes and demonstrated some examples. The lesson took place in a standard classroom.
You plan to teach a second lesson on symmetry. The lesson will take place in the computer lab. The objective of the second lesson is to teach students how to
identify different symmetrical shapes. Each student will be asked to create three symmetrical shapes and two asymmetrical shapes. The students must use ICT to
explain to the class why their shapes are either symmetrical or asymmetrical.
Professional Development Objectives
Your professional development objectives for the year are to:
use ICT effectively for the teaching and learning;
incorporate appropriate ICT activities into lesson plans so as to support student’s acquisition of school subject matter knowledge; and
integrate the use of ICT into the curriculum.
