Aspect 2: The social system

Teacher needs to be comfortable with the technology and interact with the students. The students will be collaborating with the teacher/mentor and other students during the entire lesson. Even though this is an individual project, the students will be discussing with others pertinent information to be included (brainstorming) and seeking help from their peers to complete their newsletter/brochure.

Aspect 3: The role of the instructor

The role of the teacher will change as the lesson unfolds. The mentor and teacher will plan the lesson. Then the teacher will be the major facilitator/guide throughout the classroom/research part of the lesson. The teacher will guide the students through discussions and brainstorming. He will guide the students as they complete their own research and production.

Aspect 4: The support system

I will not be involved in the actual teaching of the lesson since the students and teacher will be using the Library and classroom. When the students are in the production phase of their project, I will be available to assist the teacher. The teacher will conduct the majority of the technology instruction. I will assist during the first 2 periods of the day, then the teacher will take over and I will be available in the background to help.
