Teaching for Justice with Technology Assignment Instructions

Objectives
  • Explore lessons focused on facilitating students’ understanding of diversity, justice, and action

  • Integrate student-centered technology into a pre-existing lesson plan focused on diversity, justice, and/or action

  • Create materials to support student learning for a pre-existing lesson plan focused on diversity, justice, and/or action

Create 1–2 materials/resources to support your selected lesson:
  • For example, you might create: a student handout made in Google docs, student manipulatives, an example student creation, a rubric or checklist for the lesson, a student instruction sheet for how to set up/ use the technology, a Padlet board where students will post their work, bulletin board materials, Powerpoint slides for direct instruction, a parent letter created with Canva, etc.

  • It is okay to create physical materials (not digital). If so, you can take a photo of them to submit.

Write a summary of the tech-ified, justice-oriented lesson. Address:
  • Include a link to your original lesson (the low tech version from Learning for Justice, Morningside, or Derman-Sparks et al)

  • What will students do?

  • What will the teacher(s) do?

  • What technology will be used?

  • What social justice standards will be addressed?

  • What International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE, 2024) student standards will be addressed?
