One thing that is

great about LMS is
that students are
relatively able to
move at their own
pace and they will
be able to read as
thoroughly ahead as
they need to
throughout a unit.
Pinterest could be a
good platform for
students to be able to
briefly write about
something and to also
connect what they are
doing to outside

On an LMS it would
be really easy for
students themselves
to come up with
game ideas for a
certain topic and
then to share them

resources and real life
examples.

4. Research and
Reasoning

Pinterest can be a
way for students to
show their research
sites and to
summarize and
reason for why they
used this site in the
description.

If using pinterest,
perhaps each
student could create
a pin for a different
planet and the
website could be
their research or a
diagram while the
students fill out the
description with
information on the
planet that they
learned from
research.

Differentiation

with the class and

since it is not a
traditional school
setting necessarily,
each student could
try a game they feel
fits their needs to
help them to
understand.

With an LMS students

can take their time
moving through a
lesson (except for
timed activities) and
will be able to go
through each step as
many times as
possible and have
different examples
and resources to help
them get to whatever
stage of
understanding needs
to be demonstrated.
LMS are an obvious
solution for students
with physical
disabilities- they can
be wherever they
need to be with
whatever
adaptation make
them comfortable
enough to move
through their
education as
needed!

Pinterest could be
a helpful way for
teachers to share
activities and
tools to use in
classrooms. For
example, teachers
could share online
tools that are a
more advanced or
thorough project
for GT students or
to even provide
more complicated
subjects for them
to work on.
It is possible that
teachers could
collaborate on an LMS
to create a class that
allows students
learning English to

access activities and
materials in their own
language while at
home or at a specific
time in the classroom
so that they can keep
up but still be
immersed in English.

Reflection:
I think that pinterest is a great way to stockpile resources and information and would be a good tool to use between teachers as
long as the pins were original rather than borrowed, because when you initially search pedagogy, for example, nothing very
good pops up. So it has to be used very wisely and I think that it could even be a good way to have students collaborate on a
group project and for them to show their research. I really enjoyed experimenting with an LMS. It is a great way to boost
understanding in a physical classroom you just have to be sure that everyone has access to a computer/ internet if you make it
a necessary component to the classroom if using it for outside the classroom assignments. However, it does not even have to just
be for homework, which could be a cool idea, to have a station in the classroom that is for completing some sort of LMS
assignment for a specific subject while incorporating technology education! Another great thing about an LMS is the automatic
progress tracking and other easily accessible assessment information, which would really create an effective teacher who can fill
holes in student knowledge and better prepare them.
