Genius Hour Project Based Learning

Original Idea

• The activity I planned was a project based learning, a genius hour project. 

What I created

• A “binder’ within Numbers
• Tabs held different parts of the project (these would be sections in a traditional binder)
• More tabs will be created as the project progresses.

What I taught Students

• Accessibility features of the iPad
• Reader in Safari
• Ability to Mark Up the “simplified” website
• Numbers
• How to create a new tab 
• How to add text, photos, videos, etc to a Numbers tab

Impact

• Students could return to watch the videos of sample projects at any time
• Student’s materials were all located on their iPad and would not be lost in the backpack.
• As students collect websites, photos, and information they are able to quickly collect everything in one place.
• Students were able to read complicated websites using Accessibility features

A sample "My Action Plan" page that was created to show students what to complete.

This is a quarter long project that will be worked on for one period a week.
