AUGMENTATION Technology acts as a direct tool for substitution with some functional improvement. enhancement SUBSTITUTION Technology acts as a direct tool for substitution with no real change.

Professional Journal Reading Think about what you know about the Zika virus and read this article. SUBSTITUTION Technology acts a direct substitute, with no functional improvement Log in to your computer and click on Google Chrome. Click on the link below http://nhsjs.com/2016/zika-virus-novel-detection-techniques-and-treatment/ 3. Read the article Zika Virus: Novel Detection Techniques and Treatment. 4. In your Interactive Notebook, write 3 questions that you have about the reading. This task uses: Internet Learning Objective(s): Describe the role of viruses in causing diseases and conditions (e.g., AIDS, common colds, smallpox, influenza, warts) (LS-H- C7) (LS-H-G2).

A Biome Discovery Internet iPad or computer Blackboard Based upon the reading from Chapter 6 about biomes, we are going to construct our own 8 biomes. AUGMENTATION Technology acts as a direct tool for substitution with some functional improvement. Using the definitions and pictures that you drew about biomes, open your interactive notebook to that page. Log in to your computer. Using the browser Google Chrome, go to the site Switch Zoo. http://switchzoo.com/games/buildabiome.htm Select a biome to build based on your knowledge of the characteristics of the biomes. Read the directions then click next. Click play. Follow the directions that appear on the screen. Once you biome is built correctly, take a screen shot (hold the power and menu button simultaneously, a snippet or click ctrl+printscreen). Login to Blackboard. Click on Mr. Johnson’s Blackboard site. Click on the Discussion board. Create a thread to add your screenshot. Repeat for the other biomes you built. You should have 6 submissions total. This task uses: Internet iPad or computer Blackboard Learning Objective(s): Describe the characteristics of major biomes on Earth (SE-H- A1) TEACHER NOTES: Teacher’s name/email: Raymond.Johnson@cpsb.org School: LaGrange High School Louisiana State Standard: Describe the characteristics of major biomes on Earth (SE-H-A1) Grade Level/Subject: 9Students must have experience logging into Blackboard and posting in the Discussion Board.th Grade Environmental Science Special Directions/Considerations: Activity Evaluation: Submitted screenshots of biomes. Prerequisites for students: Students must have experience logging into Blackboard and posting in the Discussion Board.

significant task redesign. M Earth Cycle’s Using the carbon, water, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus cycle, design your own using a flow chart. MODIFICATION Technology allows for significant task redesign. Look at the following images Log in to computer. Using the Chrome browser , go to this site: http://creately.com/diagram-type/templates/flowchart. Choose a template. You and your assigned group members, will create your own cycle in PowerPoint. Be sure to label your images. Login to Blackboard and click on Mr. Johnson’s Blackboard site. Click on the Discussion board titled Cycles. Create a thread to add your cycle PowerPoint. Review at least two other postings. Provide feedback to support the image or make suggestions. This task uses: Carbon cycle Water cycle Oxygen cycle Nitrogen cycle Phosphorus cycle Internet iPad Blackboard Notebook Learning Objective(s): Illustrate the flow of carbon, water, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus through an ecosystem (SE-H-A6) (LS- H-D1) TEACHER NOTES: Teacher’s name/email: Raymond.Johnson@cpsb.org School: LaGrange High Louisiana State Standard: Illustrate the flow of carbon, water, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus through an ecosystem (SE-H-A6) (LS-H-D1) Grade Level/Subject: 9th Grade Environmental Science Special Directions/Considerations: Activity Evaluation: Prerequisites for students:

R Class Trophic Level Internet Blackboard Create a class trophic pyramid REDEFINITION Technology allows for the creation of new tasks that were previously not conceivable. Log in to the computer and open the Chrome browser. Select from the approved list of sites an example of a trophic pyramid. National Education Network http://gallery.nen.gov.uk/ Pics4Learning http://pics4learning.com/ wpclipart http://www.wpclipart.com/browse.html photos for Class https://www.photosforclass.com/ Make sure it includes organisms, and the appropriate percentages of energy. 2. You and your group are going to design one of the trophic levels using various materials. Construction paper, project board, ect. 3. One member of the group will login in to Blackboard and select Mr. Johnson’s Blackboard site. Click on the Discussion board titled Trophic Pyramid. Post your group’s project with the name of your trophic level. Once you’ve posted your trophic level, find the group from another hour who has the same level as you and compare organisms. Provide comments to show that you agree with their representation or provide suggestions to improve their level.
