Phase+2-Determine+Relative+Advantage

Due to the fact that students will be peer-teaching a chosen literary movement from their research, a technology-based method is the most beneficial. Presentations are much more engaging for students to construct and the audience to retain knowledge. Because I believe in getting students to engage in higher-order thinking, I must provide an in-depth instructional method so students don't just receive a superficial understanding of a concept. As a result, I created an instructional lesson where students jigsaw the literary movements in order to peer-teach one another. I will implement this lesson at the beginning of the school year for my English III students. Students will get an overview of each literary movement before they read works from each period. Another advantage is that students get the opportunity to present their knowledge in a way that will not only engage the audience but address the audience's and the learners' multiple intelligences such as spacial, kinesthetic, and so on. While students are constructing their glogster poster for their presentation, they will learn from group members' strengths and learn about their own weaknesses. Students who have access to the Internet will have the opportunity to work out of class on their project. Most of my students are tech savvy. The students who might struggle with technology can get help from those students who are more skilled. This lesson also provides for differentiation as students can work at their own ability level. This technology-based method most likely connects to most of my students preferred way to show their knowledge because technology has been a large part of their entire life.
