Student Motivation and Technology
This discussion provides an opportunity to evaluate a variety of digital and assistive technologies for supporting diverse learners. Based on the required readings from Housand & Housand (2012), McCombs (2000), and Page (2002), you know that research shows that effective technology integration can support student motivation, engagement, and interest in learning. Furthermore, research has shown that through thoughtful integration of audio, video, and other media, instruction can be differentiated, ultimately increasing a student’s motivation to learn. To explore this research, in this discussion you will analyze how technology integration can be used as a method of intervention to meet the needs of diverse learners. To prepare for this discussion, review the Week Two Instructor Guidance and the Required Resources for the week. Next, access either The Teaching Channel or Edutopia and conduct a search using the key words “using technology for learning motivation” or similar. Select one video that can inform your response to the discussion points below. If for some reason you are unable to support your response to this discussion using the video option, please contact your instructor for an alternative way to complete this discussion.
Initial Post: Respond with an initial post that includes the following components:1.

1.     Provide a link to the video you viewed and a succinct description of the video’s focus, such as the grade-level of students, the educator(s) involved, and the subject being taught (e.g., science or language arts).

2.     In at least one paragraph, describe how the technology is being used in the video and describe what you observed in the video that informs you that students’ motivation is increased or otherwise supported due to the use of the technology.

3.     Next, succinctly describe how the use of the technology promotes students’ engagement during the learning process.

 

4.     Finally, describe the extent to which the use of technology and its motivating factors outweighs the potential challenges the educator might face in acquiring the technology and learning how to effectively implement it.

First Steps

Write a two- to three-page analysis of your community and the existing programs for youth within this community using the following guidelines:

1.      Using your research from the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Fact Finder, Pew Research Center, and the National Center for Education Statistics, create an info-graphic picture of your community to support your written analysis. Embed the info-graphic picture into your analysis as a chart illustrating the written analysis. Your info-graphic and analysis should illustrate those statistics that have direct bearing on the 40 Developmental Assets identified by the Search Institute which can include, but are not limited to:

·         Population demographics, including ethnicity and special populations

·         Economic status

·         Housing and household demographics

2.      Summarize youth-related issues that seem to be at the forefront of your community. Use specific examples to support your observations (newspaper headlines, community meetings, political platforms, etc.) and cite your text when appropriate.

3.      In support of your written analysis, create and embed a table that identifies the resources for young people that already exist in your community. Your table should include:

·         The name of the program

·         A short description of the program’s mission

·         An analysis how the program engages with the youth they serve (Are they partners with adults?)

·         Summarize which of the 40 Developmental Assets the program focuses on or attempts to meet with their program

Conclude your analysis by brainstorming ideas on how you can plug into one or more of the existing programs using the Asset Building Framework. Focus specifically on where you can make an impact in strengthening relationships within families, among peers, within schools and other institutions, in programs and outside of programs, and across generations. Your analysis must be two to three pages in length (excluding the title and reference pages), double spaced, and be formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center. Two references, charts, and tables should be properly cited. Your info-graphic and analysis will be used in your Final Paper and presentation.
