Activity: Select one technology from Module 0 (such as an online resource, smartphone tool, or tablet app) to enhance a short demonstration (5–10 minutes) of a trade-related task or concept. Then, create a simple lesson plan around it. Use the Padagogy Wheel to guide your selection based on the learning goals of your demonstration. For example, you might demonstrate a safety procedure in construction or a recipe step in catering, using the chosen technology to make the demonstration more engaging or effective for your students. Your lesson plan should include:

  • The trade and task/concept you will demonstrate (e.g., “Construction: Demonstrating a Safety Check for Tools”).
  • The technology you chose and a brief description (e.g., “an online video resource”).
  • 3-4 simple steps describing how you will use the technology in your demonstration.
  • A reflection on how this technology improves your demonstration and student learning (100-150 words).

When you are happy with your lesson plan, upload it to the DS4TC21 Moodle site and earn a badge.
