Mobile Learning & ICT Lesson Plan Template

Lesson Plan Title-
Introducing our group to a foreign group.

Lesson Description (brief)-
Situation .
The teacher has a contact, which started at the end of the last academic year, with a French school. Both teachers are interested in their students’ using foreign languages to communicate.
Therefore, the task is to create a videostory (3,2,1 presentation consisting of three things they would like to tell others about themselves, two things they did and liked last summer and one thing they would like to do or to be in the future.) to introduce the members of the group as a start point for communication with the French group.
Age Group-
15-year-old students (4º ESO). A special group of students with low academic achievement profile but they enjoy interaction with people and ICTs since their selfsteem increases when they manage to do something different in the classroom.


Duration-
2 weeks, 8 periods of 1 hour.There are 2 hours' time for emergency needs and security buffer.
Objectives-
  1. Fostering group work.
  2. Increasing self-steem
  3. Fostering individual responsibility towards the group mission.
  4. Writing personal texts
  5. Interpreting texts.
  6. Organizing video recording
  7. Shooting, editing videos.
  8. Using mobile devices: smart phones and digital photocamera.
  9. Peer evaluation: process, participation.
  10. Self-evalutation of process, participation and product.

Classroom Set-up (Please include a description of your class setting)-
An ordinary classroom with desks, chairs, one teacher desk, one personal computer, connected to school server, one interactive digital board, one traditional blackboard A lab (accessible once a week) with 30 booths with 30 pcs, teacher post with pc. Connection to school server (intranet), Google mail accounts, the application Magisto.

Materials/Handouts-
  1. Storyboard template
  2. Texts written by students for a 3,2,1 presentation consisting of three things they would like to tell others about themselves, two things they did and liked last summer and one thing they would like to do or to be in the future.
  3. The following evaluation documents and their worksheets for Google doc based items.
  4. Students' Foreign Laguage Portfolio.
1. Conclusions
2. Intergroup story
3. Peer evaluation
4. Storytelling rubric
5. Storyboard rubric


Apps/Web Tools/ Technology-
This is what I wrote succinctly in the previous delivery:
Students will use their smart phones, digital cameras and the videos will be produced and edited with Magisto in either of its possibilites (application or web).

Pre-teach-
The following items will be explained amd taught to students before action: video editing, storyboard, template, system of evlauation, instruments of evaluation, plannning, roles in a group.
Detailed Lesson
Before the Task- (half a session)
  1. The teacher will explain the reason, mission, task, products, timing, evaluation.
  2. The preteaching will be done.
  3. The phases (brainstorming, storyboarding, the capturing/ creation/ gathering of content,edits, final submission, viewing, feedback, and assessment) will be detailed.
  4. Tools and organization will be explained.
  5. Students will form the work groups and teacher will accept them and register their names.
Explanation
During the Task- ( 60-minute sesions unless otherwise stated)
Session 1 (90minutes)
Students will reconsider and or accept the group members.
Students will receive the storyboard template.
Students will start the storyboard.
Students will decide on the storyboard.
Students will recover their 3,2,1 presentations from their foreign language digital portfolios.
Students will coedit their texts and will produce support material for the presentation.
Students will decide where to film and the props to be used, if any.
Sesion 2. (90 minutes)
Students will decide the final storyboard and texts.
Students will memorise the texts.
Studen will rehearse their texts.
Students will get used to the use of their recording devices.
Students will get used to the use of the production and edition tool.
Students will shoot the film.

Sesion 3
Students will view and edit the film.
After the Task-
Sesion 4
Students will evaluate their perr groups' stories by using the evaluation documents.

Presentation-
Sesion 5
Students will show their stories again and upload them (Padlet) to share them with the French school.
Sesion 6
Videoconference (Skype) with the French school.

Assessment-
Students will be evaluated with the following documents
1. Conclusions
2. Intergroup story
3. Peer evaluation
4. Storytelling rubric
5. Storyboard rubric
Documents 4 and 5 will be used by the teacher and ther rest of evaluation documents will be completed by the students. Each document represents a 20 percent of the total mark. It is extarodinarily important to know that no evaluation will be done without the first document (Conclusions), that is to say Conclusions is a requisite to be evaluated and receive a positive mark. The absence of that document will mean a fail.
Additional Notes/Tips for Success-
2 weeks, 8 periods of 1 hour were scheduled. That schedule allows for 2 periods' time for emergency needs and security buffer. The plan is totally contextually to the realityof the infrastructure (premises, services, classrooms, organisation, timetable, tools and machines) of our school and the class group.
