 * === **Agenda** === ||
 * **Time** || **Location** || **Activity** ||
 * 9:00 – 9:25 || Ball Room A || Registration and materials pick up area. Participants will pick up name badges and rolling bags. ||
 * 9:30 – 9:55 || Lecture Hall C || Participants will watch a short clip of a lesson implemented using technology to promote active engagement. Participants will be given a think pad (note pad) and instructed to write down any impressions received, recognizable strategies used, technologies used, and critical thinking components promoted by technology use, if any. ||
 * 10:00 – 10:55 || Technology Room 2 || Look at some lesson plans on budgeting and critique them. Decide which lessons are amenable for technology use and student engagement ||
 * 11:00 – 11:55 || Technology Room 2 || Explore some online technologies
 * 12:00 - 1:00 || Lunch || Own Your Own ||
 * 1:05 – 2:15 || Presentation Room 4 || Collaborative Assignment: Take the lessons chosen and pair them with appropriate technologies and redesign the lesson using the appropriate technologies.

Create a short PowerPoint that communicates how the lesson will implemented using technology. The ideas are the focal point along with technology pairing for active student learning. ||
 * 2:15 – 3:00 || Presentation Room 4 || Collaborative Assignment: Presentation of Lesson Design ||

How will you include Mayer’s principle of active processing in your __**authentic assessment activity**__? The participants will be critiquing, modifying, and redesigning a lesson to the specifications of stated objectives.
 * Module 2 Questions**

What kind of product will your participants create to demonstrate their learning using multimedia technology? The participants will create a technology rich lesson plan that promotes active engagement in students. The focus of the lesson will not be the technology itself, but the facilitation of the content through the use of technology that allows the students to play an active role in learning.

What kind of multimedia presentation must you create to effectively present key concepts and skills to your participants (video, PowerPoint, podcast, screencast, interactive tutorial, or other)? I plan to use __**Power Point**__ to create an interactive tutorial.

How will you include Mayer’s principles of dual coding and limited capacity in your presentation? Material will be presented each objective at a time or in small chunks. Reflection time will allowed for thought processing and recording of ideas or strategies gleaned from clips, discussions, lesson plan development, and brain storming.

What kind of __**graphic organizer**__ would be best to give your participants to help facilitate learning in your workshop? Visual organizer with text and some type of color and/or diagrams would best serve my participants to help guide the flow of the topics covered.

What concepts in your presentation will __**require pre-training**__ before you begin the workshop? The concept of pairing technology with specific activities in a lesson to illuminate the content and promote active engagement will require some pre-training.

How will you use multimedia to engage your learners during the pre-training phase? I am going to show them a clip of a lesson that used effective technology and demonstrate authentic student engagement. I will provide a think pad for the participant to write down any thoughts generated while watching the clip or anything that caught their eye, spark their interest, or even raised questions while viewing.

What equipment will you need to conduct your workshop (projector, laptops for each pair of participants, Internet connections, other)? I will need a data projector, laptop, and an Internet connection to conduct the hands part of the workshop.

What online applications might you use? I may use Google Docs, YouTube, Wiki, Blog, RCampus, online mortgage calculator ([]), online car loan estimator ([]), online site for estimating the cost of raising a family ([] or []), and online site for income estimator based on chosen occupation ([]), and online credit scoring sheet for students ([]).

How will your participants collaborate on their projects? The participants will use face to face collaboration. Since the workshop is not virtual, it seems more productive to allow face to face feedback and exchange of ideas and technology knowledge.

How will you group them to __**create authentic assessment**__ in your workshop? All participants are business educators. The will be grouped by random color on conference packets.
