Assignment: Teachers must be able to help students make meaningful connections to social studies content. Using resources such as media and technology benefits students by engaging them in making those connections. The purpose of this assignment is to analyze potential engaging technology resources that integrate real-life application in the social studies classroom.

Create a 10-12 slide digital presentation for your social studies colleagues that promotes different technologies to be used in the classroom. For your presentation select an elementary grade level(K-5th grade) and geography standard of your choice. Then locate three different technology resources that could be used to teach your selected standard.

Your presentation should explain:

• How the technology resource works.

• Whether students work individually or collaboratively.

• How the technology resource could be used to support scaffolding of the geography standard you chose. Provide specific examples.

• Why the resource is helpful and engages students.

• How the resource promotes real-world application.

Be sure to include a title slide, reference slide, and presenter's notes.
