Inductive

1. I can use the Inductive model in my Accounting class to teach reports. I will explain to students that we will be learning about the different reports in Accounting. I will then show students an example of each type of report (these examples will be scanned in and displayed on my website). I will then ask students to make a list of similarities, differences, and any connections they can make regarding the reports. Students will compile their list of similarities and differences on Padlet. To finish up, I will explain the uses and creation process for each report. In our next lesson, we will learn to create the reports.
2. In Web Development, I can use this model to teach visual design principles. I will explain to students the definition of visual design. I will then explain that we will be looking for examples of good design. I will show students examples and nonexamples of good use of visual design principles. As we are going through the examples, students will be compiling a list of good design principles on AnswerGarden. Students will then be asked to search the Internet for their own example and nonexample of good visual design principles. They will present their examples to their peers for discussion. Students will refer to their list of good design principles while creating their own websites.
3. In Computer Technology 2, I can use this model for teaching the proper uses of PowerPoint. I will give students an example of a good PowerPoint presentation and a bad PowerPoint presentation. Students will create a list of features they see on each presentation. We will list those features using Padlet. Students will demonstrate their understanding of good use of PowerPoint by creating their own presentation. The presentation will be posted online for their peers to view.
