4D Facilitate access to digital-age resources which promote cross-cultural awareness and connections.

 4D Facilitate access to digital-age resources which promote cross-cultural awareness and connections.

I develop digitial instruction which accesses articles from a variety of digital sources and subjects and topics. For example, I have  presented students with two articles on the same topic relating to the Transit of Venus. Students read and found facts/opinions within both articles. One article source was a digital  The New York Timesarticle, and the other one was a digital article from the BBC. Students evaluated and compared/contrasted information in the two articles from two different parts of the world. 

Students have read articles and completed Popplets for an  article on The Elephant Whisperer who  recently passed away. The articles and video clips students read and viewed originated in Africa. 

The Google Document where students highlighted and evaluated facts/opinions 


My virtual book club book-where students met with me virtually in Google Chat and  Skype focused on two books relating to the Holocaust. Here is a sample reading  guide, I created for  my challenged readers/learners:
