Today in tech class was a mixture of free work time and a giant check-in session of our inquiries. I realized at my meeting with Val that my blog was lowkey breaking many plagiarisms laws and that if I wanted to avoid going to court I would have to give these websites the recognition they deserved. After finishing the citing of the pictures and recipes I began to start the process of my tech inquiry. I am in a group with Teya and Cass and our inquiry is about gamification in education. We all are amateurs when it comes to this type of learning and I look forward to researching more on this subject and one day when I am in the school system to use this type of learning in my classroom. We have decided to use the presenting medium Prezi to allow our presentation to be more visually engaging for the class. We have chosen to split the questions up between the three of us and the questions I have chosen to conquer all fall under the umbrella question “how does gamification impact student learning” and more specifically what are the advantages and disadvantages of using it in the classroom.
