Reflection
The GAME plan I developed will be used as a resource this school year. I now have a clear grasp in using different technology resources to enhance my instructional practice and student learning. Further, the newly acquired skills will change the way I plan my instructional lessons and the way I teach. My game plan will be modified as needed to facilitate the needs of my learners through shortening the tasks or added to the tasks. More importantly, the immediate adjustments I will consider will be to use technology based activities within my instructional practice (Cennamo, Ross, & Ertmer, 2009). Technology will be connected to theory through implementing the multiple intelligences approach (Laureate Education Inc. 2011a).

Employing the multiple intelligences approach will enable diverse learners to learn collaboratively and take part in hands-on activities. In addition, employing the group and hands on approach will require my instructional practice to focus on technology integration within my content area(s). The experiences I have gained from this course will enable me to design lesson activities that integrate technology across the curriculum.

Technology resources will be a tool that I will apply to promote social networking/online, self-directed learning, problem-based learning, collaboration, and digital storytelling. I believe creating multiple opportunities for students to learn tasks will enable them to become critical consumers of information (Eagleton & Dobler, 2007). Without a doubt, teaching students to become critical consumers of information will require teaching them to make connections and reflect on introduced tasks (Laureate Education Inc.2011a).
