<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 130%;">An excellent resource for using DE Streaming in the classroom is [|50 Ways to Integrate DE Streaming].

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 130%;">TWICE: Two Way Interactive Connections in Education. The majority of U.S. public schools have implemented Discovery Education Streaming's digital video library capabilities, but some schools are at the forefront of utilizing the speedy Internet for interactive education. [|TWICE], which stands for Two Way Interactive Connections in Education, promotes collaborative connections both nationally and regionally. For example, students sheltered from snowy weather in Detroit can visit NASA for a launch in tropical Cape Canaveral, Florida. While on their virtual field trip, students have the full attention of a NASA employee who receives and answers their questions in real time!

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 130%;">After you have reviewed the DE Streaming materials, submit a lesson plan proposal for the final project. The lesson should be used with your students before you submit it as your final project, so that you can include a reflection and analysis of the lesson. It is important to list the impact and refinement of the lesson which are dependent on you trying the lesson with your students, so you will need to think about this project several weeks before it is due.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 130%;">This assignment requires you to <span style="color: #000080; font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 130%;">submit the topic, goals and objectives for your final project. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 130%;"> Also remember that this is a proposal and should just be an outline of the final project. You will submit the final lesson plan in Unit 12.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 130%;">Try to use as many DE Streaming materials as possible -- videos, worksheet, lesson plan ideas, word searches, calendar activities, etc. Remember to keep in mind that this course is about the integration of technology so your final lesson plan project should include several activities that incorporate technology. Take into consideration some of the learning theories you have read about in this unit.

<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif; font-size: 130%;">There is a lesson template in your textbook which you should follow (see below). Also, you must integrate at least one DE Streaming video and one image in the lesson.
