MTT demonstrates knowledge to : • use task appropriate tools • create & modify solutions • evaluate results in problem solving
MTT knows how to: • use & integrate appropriate technology-based productivity tools word processing spreadsheet database Internet draw paint utility programs video, etc.
Word Processing • composing/writing • reports, abstracts • outlines • checks grammar, spelling
Spreadsheets • calculations including functions • payments • counts • min/max • standard deviation, etc. • charts & graphs
Database vs. Spreadsheet • ease in data entry • main point – will the data be relational • several tables needed • large amounts of data • complex queries
Video • computer • Internet connection • video camera is not required! • digital video/start with digital images • digital camera • scanner • Internet
Video Camera (If you must) • Lighting • Shot list, story board for planning • Key Light – front of subject, off to the left, bright • Fill light – weaker & across from fill light (right) • Edge (back) light
MTT knows how to facilitate • use appropriate digital editing tools • design principles for classroom • consistency • repetition • alignment • proximity • text/white space • image file size, color, font, etc.
Digital Editing Tools • Adobe PhotoShop • Digital camera editing software • Final Cut Pro Capabilities • resize images • sharpen • crop
Design Principles • Consistency • simple, clean background • same, easy to read font • similar navigation buttons • similar titles, logos • smooth transition from page to page
Image Compression • why? download time • Graphic Interchange Format (GIF) • saved in 256 colors only • dithering, less contrast • not recommended for scanned images or digital photos
Joint Photographers Expert Group (JPEG/JPG) • Lossy compression • retrieved image may not be exactly the same • use 80% to balance image quality and file saving • use original image each time
Bitmap (bmp) • raster – rectangular grid of pixels • photographs • cannot be scaled w/o loss of quality • edit in Adobe or Paint • vector – geometric grid in curves or polygon • typesetting or graphic design • easily scale to quality of device • Corel Draw
Portable Network Graphics (PNG) • bitmapped image • lossless compression • designed to improve & replace GIF • better for storage than JPG Wikipedia.com
Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) • mainly for storing images • stores in a lossless format
MTT knows how to use: • research skills, • electronic resources and • communication to synthesize information.
Research Skills • define task • organize research options • review research information • outline & organize information • write, present, decision making
Electronic Resources • Internet • search engines • listservs • electronic journals • electronic databases
Communication • discussion groups • collaborate using blogs • subject matter experts • campus • professors
Synthesis • process of integrating materials gathered, & creating information • discussion questions • course projects
MTT applies methods for • extending learning environment • Publish student work on school website
MTT knows how to accomplish tasks to include participation w/: • technological collaboration • electronic communities • student • initiator • contributor • teacher mentor
Technological Collaboration • eChalk • Blackboard • blogs • instant messaging • email • news groups
MTT knows how to: • create specifications & instructions for technology based tasks. • creation of detailed instructional plan • use of Internet for research
MTT knows how to use technology applications • to facilitate the evaluation of • Work • Process • Product
MTT knows how to create rubrics • evaluate technology based processes and products • use established criteria • avoids bias
Rubric • method of evaluation using set criteria • used in subjective assignments • presentations • web pages • other technology projects • provides expectations and consistency in grading
