=Week 11 - Productivity Tools/Tasks Workout=

Work on ePortfolio. Create teacher communication mechanism (website?) As you explore teacher websites, ask yourself: **Cool Classroom Criteria** Consider some of the following areas when evaluating class pages:
 * What draws you into the website?
 * What distracts you from enjoying the website?
 * What would you change to make it more effective?
 * Clear Page Goal(s)
 * Visually Appealing - no distractions
 * Active and/or Interactive
 * Creative and Original
 * Easy to Access and Use
 * Technically Sound - no linkrot

What we did this week? Please list both what you did for your workout this week, and what students submitted for this workout (see Week 8 for an example of how this should look)

Part 1 - Workout - Productivity Reflection: __Option 1:__ Reflect on your status meeting one or more of the NETS-T Standards page referring to increasing productivity.

By the end of the semester, your Meeting NETS-T standards page should be a discussion of how the artifacts in your Artifacts page help you progress toward meeting the NETS-T Standards. Under each standard, you need to summarize your status toward meeting the standard. In your summaries, you must refer to specific artifacts.

Ex: I have had some progress toward standard X in several ways. First, I created a rubric using an online rubric generator for 6th grade English Class to grade an essay about X. This helped me….

__Option 2:__ Create a new post in your blog How can you use tools you have seen/experimented in this class to increase your students’ productivity ( efficiency and effectiveness)?

Some productivity tools for students -
 * Templates (Brochures, newsletters, and others)
 * Comment tool in Word
 * Commenting each other’s Blog posts
 * Survey to get feedback on a project
 * File cabinet in Google Sites to keep all files organized and in the same location
 * Google documents (easy to share and collaborate)
 * Delicious, iGoogle, Doodle, etc.

Part 2 - My feedback on e-portfolios (individually) / Work time on e-portfolio and other W200 assignments

Part 3 - E-portfolios peer review Click on link for your section – “List of E-portfolio Peer Reviews.” Review the portfolios of the two classmates that follow your name in the list. Spend about 15 minutes looking at each portfolio and filling out the feedback form. By next class, review the feedback you received from your peers. Make revisions as needed. Write a summary (about 500 words) of the feedback you received and the revisions you made. On your Portfolio Discussion page, put the link to your own e-portfolio feedback live form and your summary.

I provided brief information about various assignments (due dates/ grading points and criteria/ templates/ resources). I organized the labs in 3 part. __1) Workout__: I let students have a group discussion about productivity tools - " how can you use tools you have seen/experimented in this class to increase your students' productivity - effieciency and effectiveness (Nilufer's idea, thanks)." After that, for this week's workout, I asked them to create link to e-portfolio feedback 'live' survey form that they created last week on their e-portfolio 'Discussion page'. They were asked to write how Google Survey form can increase their productivity briefly as uploading their e-portfolio URL on Oncourse - Lab 11 workuot space. __2) e-portfolio peer review__: I asked them to provide critical and valuable feedback on each other's e-portfolio as group with 3. As a group they shared their e-portfolio URLs and took the survey which already linked on Discussion page of e-portfolio. Then each of them asked to write a summary of the feedback they received and the revisions they made and then to put the link the summary file. __3) Worktime on e-portfolio and other assignments__: I gave students about 30 minutes to do individual work for their e-portfolio or other assignments such as artifact proposals, artifacts, or pre-final exam.
