Stanford University School of Education EDUC 124 Collaborative Design and Research of Technology-Integrated Curriculum Learning Objectives Enduring Understanding Length can be represented by different symbols and is communicated using common standards. Objectives 1. Students will be able to measure using non-standard units (blocks). 2. Students will be able to explain why measuring with two different nonstandard units (2 sizes of blocks) can be confusing.

Stanford University School of Education EDUC 124 Collaborative Design and Research of Technology-Integrated Curriculum Educational Context Alignment Corresponding NCTM K-2 Standard: Understand measurable attributes of objects and the units, systems, and processes of measurement: understand how to measure using nonstandard and standard units. Corresponding California First Grade Standard: Measurement and Geometry: Students use direct comparison and nonstandard units to describe the measurement of objects.

Stanford University School of Education EDUC 124 Collaborative Design and Research of Technology-Integrated Curriculum Next Steps More explicit directions on how to match ruler or blocks with the bottom of the feet Improve feedback when child incorrectly identifies how tall/long an animal is. Have instructional audio automatically replay if child has not done anything for a length of time.

Stanford University School of Education EDUC 124 Collaborative Design and Research of Technology-Integrated Curriculum Next Steps Emphasize that the child needs to stack ALL of the blocks, and include this in the instructional audio that replays Add extra fun things to find on the screen if the child plays through the game a second time. Include several end screens where child can measure with a ruler with feedback mechanism

Stanford University School of Education EDUC 124 Collaborative Design and Research of Technology-Integrated Curriculum Next Steps Show an animation of how to count up on a ruler Add in extra animals to measure at the end. Include initial explicit directions on how to move to the next screen. Do in Flash.
