WEEK 10: GOOGLE SIRVEY: DIGITAL STORYTELLING IN LANGUAGE ARTS ASSESSMENT

1. Explain how you developed the survey activity. How did you decide on the questions/statements?

I first developed the survey activity by identifying the key areas I wanted to explore, such as students‘ understanding of digital storytelling elements and their engagement in the lesson. I decided on the questions and statements after I had considered the learning objectives and the specific information I needed to collect. For example, I included questions about students’ understanding of storytelling elements (characters, setting, plot, point of view, conflict, resolution) to directly assess their comprehension. There were also questions about their enjoyment and engagement to measure the effectiveness of the lesson.

2. Do you think that the questionnaire items and the learning objectives are parallel? Can you explain this parallelism by giving 3 examples?

Yes, the questionnaire items were designed to be parallel with the learning objectives. Here are three examples of this parallelism:

  1. Learning Objective: Students will be able to understand the basic elements of digital storytelling.
    • Survey Item: ‘After the class, how well do you understand the following elements of storytelling (Characters, Setting, Plot, Conflict, Resolution)?’
    • Parallelism: This question directly assesses students' understanding of the key components of digital storytelling and is related to the objective.
  2. Learning Objective: Students will be able to create a storyboard for their digital story.
    • Survey Item: ‘Can you create your own digital story by using a technological application that you have been informed about recently?’
    • Parallelism: This question measures students' understanding and readiness to apply their knowledge when creating a storyboard, reflecting the learning objective.
  3. Learning Objective: Students will be able to engage in peer review and provide constructive feedback.
    • Survey Item: ‘Is the feedback I get from my classmates helps me improve my digital story?’
    • Parallelism: This question is directly connected to the goal of engaging and valuing peer feedback by allowing students to reflect on their peer review experiences.

3. Describe how you integrate content knowledge into the lesson plan through the Google survey.

The Google survey is integrated into the lesson plan as a tool for both formative and summative assessment. It was used to collect data on students' prior knowledge, show their progress and evaluate their understanding of digital storytelling concepts. By analysing the survey responses, I could adapt the lesson content to address knowledge gaps and reinforce key concepts. This integration ensured that the lesson plan was dynamic and responsive to students' needs.

4. Write at least 5 examples of prompts that you used in your conversations with ChatGPT, especially related to the survey activity, that involved interaction/feedback from ChatGPT.

  1. Prompt: ‘Can you help me create a survey question to assess students’ understanding of the elements of digital storytelling?"
    • ChatGPT Response: "Sure! How about this: ‘Rate your understanding of the key elements of digital storytelling (characters, setting, plot) on a scale of 1 to 5.’
  2. Instruction: ‘What are some effective ways to express questions about students’ confidence in storyboarding?"
    • ChatGPT Response: "You could ask: ‘How confident are you in your ability to create a storyboard for a digital story?’
  3. Instruction: ‘How can I design a survey question to collect feedback on the peer review process?’
    • ChatGPT Response: "Consider asking: ’Tell me about your experience with the peer review process. How useful was the feedback you received?"
  4. Prompt: ‘What kinds of questions can I add to measure student engagement with course content?’
    • ChatGPT Response: "You can add questions such as: ‘How engaging did you find the digital storytelling activities?’ and ‘Which part of the lesson did you enjoy the most?
  5. Instruction: ‘Can you suggest a question to assess students’ overall satisfaction with the course?"
    • ChatGPT Response: "Sure! Try: ‘Overall, how satisfied are you with the digital storytelling course? Please rate it on a scale from 1 to 5.’

5TH WEEK BLOG: WEB 2.0 TOOLS FOR MODERN TEACHING (COURSERA)

Before starting the topic, I will briefly talk about what I learnt from the course and the difficulties I encountered and try to explain what I learned with the help of the videos I watched. I have learnt the importance of integrating Web 2.0 tools in education and how to use these tools with the right strategies. I believe that this knowledge will help me to develop more effective and interactive methods in education. In particular, I have realised the importance of selecting the tools that suit the needs of the students and implementing these tools step by step. However, I face some difficulties in determining which tools are the most appropriate and learning how to use these tools in the best way in my lessons. These difficulties are minor difficulties caused by using any web 2.0 tool for the first time or not fully understanding how to use it. In this process, I think I can solve the problems by improving myself through continuous practice as well as getting support from my col...

WEEK 8: COMIC STRIP DEVELOPMENT AND ANALYSIS

1. Describe how you developed ComicStrip activity. I developed the ComicStrip activity by first determining the topic of the story, which was digital storytelling. I chose this topic because it would attract students' interest and meet my learning goals. I then wrote the outline and dialogues, ensuring the story was fluent and understandable. I selected and drew visuals to support the story, making sure they were educational and interesting. Using digital tools like Storyjumper, I created the story digitally, which made it more interactive and visually rich. After completing the story, I received feedback from my peers and teacher, which I used to edit and improve the story. 2.  Do you think that the story of the ComicStrip and your learning objectives are parallel? Yes, the story of the ComicStrip and my learning objectives are parallel. The ComicStrip was designed to teach the elements and process of digital storytelling, which aligns with my learning objectives.   For ex...
