'''Using technology for supporting mathematics learning outcomes'''
 +
 +
''- An online course for teachers from KV schools''
 +
 +
visualise the transaction
 +
 +
= 1.Context of the course =
 +
* Computing is becoming an increasingly important skill of today‘s world
 +
* There are a variety of digital tools that are available for supporting mathematics learning as well as for building computing skills
 +
* Teachers need to exand their PCK with approrpiate integration of technology – why teach math as if computers don‘t exist
 +
* Possible for the KV to become model sites for digital learning and digitally enabled learning
 +
* Proposed as a blended program which will include a self-paced (but finite) online course which will be combined with a face to face interaction; certification at the end of satisfactory completion
 +
* An advanced module (proposed) to take forward the learning forward from the initial offering
 +
 +
= 2.Objectives =
 +
* To create a community of teachers who become experienced in ICT integration in teaching learning
 +
* To create a resource pool among KV institutions on ICT integration in classrooms
 +
* To create OER for mathematics (and science) teaching learning
 +
* To demonstrate an online platform and course delivery for CPD for KVS teachers
 +
 +
= 3.How is the course structured =
 +
* An online course spread over 5 weeks
 +
* Participants will get a certifcate upon satisfactory completion of the online module
 +
* Participants can complete the course at their own pace
 +
* Learning resources include videos, digital artefacts using different educational tools, discussion forums, quizzes,
 +
* On a LMS where all resources will be structured and arranged for the teachers to progress through the course
 +
 +
= 4.Unit 0 – Introduction to the course =
 +
 +
== 4.1Content outline ==
 +
* Nature of ICT
 +
* Curriculum for teachers to learn and use ICT
 +
* Tools for teachers to create and connect – an overview and introduction
 +
* An understanding of open educational resources and the use of different applications to create resources
 +
* Creation of a peer learning digital community on Telegram to discuss and share ideas and resources
 +
* An overview of the LMS – features and how to use
 +
 +
== 4.2Participant activities ==
 +
* Teachers to create their profile
 +
*
 +
* Answer a pre-course survey
 +
*
 +
* Introduce themselves on the discussion forum – with an initial discussion on their understanding of technology for learning
 +
* later
 +
* see videos, webinars
 +
* quizzes
 +
* check list of activities
 +
* assessments
 +
* PDL
 +
 +
== 4.3Resources ==
 +
* Course introduction video (explaining the scope and what teachers can expect to learn)
 +
* how
 +
* A screencast recording of the LMS
 +
* Readings
 +
** NCERT ICT curriculum
 +
** ICT textbook and teacher handbook
 +
** (List of readings from the B.Ed course – Week 1)
 +
** Technology tools for teachers – COL publication
 +
 +
== 4.4Estimated time ==
 +
* 2 hours
 +
synchronous  -  2  - 4 hours
 +
 +
asynchronous  range  of time    8 - 12 hours
 +
 +
= 5.Unit 1 – Introduction to concept mapping =
 +
 +
== 5.1Content outline ==
 +
* Mapping of concepts – why?  How is it useful in the case of mathematics?
 +
* Introducing a tool for developing concept maps
 +
* Mapping the mathematical concepts – with hierarchies, connections and learning activities
 +
* How do we build assessments to reflect this kind of learning?
 +
 +
== 5.2Participant activities ==
 +
* Map the concepts associated with different topics being taught from Class 6-10 (in the online course, we will focus only on Geometry, other units can be taken up in the face-to-face interaction)
 +
* Map the prior skills, related concepts and follow-up
 +
* The concept maps – developed individually and in groups (state-wise) and will be uploaded on the discussion forum for feedback
 +
* The group collectively curates the concept maps and this develops the basis for lessons to be developed using Geogebra
 +
* Concept maps are discussed in the discussion forum
 +
co construct and review the mm
 +
 +
== 5.3Resources ==
 +
* Using concept mapping for learning
 +
* NROER object collections of concept maps
 +
* NCERT learning outcomes map (table)
 +
* Learn Freeplane
 +
 +
== 5.4Estimated time ==
 +
* 8 hours
 +
* While participants can work at their own pace, since there is a group curation involved, there will be a common deadline agreed upon by which groups will complete their work
 +
 +
= 6.Unit 2 - Using Geogebra for mathematics teaching learning - I =
 +
 +
== 6.1Content outline ==
 +
* Units mapped from Class 6-10 NCERT books (Unit 1)
 +
* Familiarity with the basic tool interface (including sliders and textbox)
 +
* Geogebra sketches for illustrating key concepts
 +
* Multiple ways of using Geogebra in transaction
 +
 +
== 6.2Participant activities ==
 +
* An initial set of Geogebra sketches to be completed by all participants
 +
* In groups, participants create the unit-wise Geogebra sketches and associated lesson plans
 +
 +
== 6.3Resources ==
 +
* Screencast recording of Geogebra interface and the toolbar
 +
* Screencast recording of important tips while using Geogebra
 +
