💬 ECT #1: Cohort Introductions
Suggested time for this task: 20 minutes Assignment Rationale: "Why am I doing this task?" ECT Candidates graduate the program with a deepened understanding of Edmodo’s platform and the pedagogic capabilities of educational technology. By the end of the cohort experience, you will have designed your own professional development training class in Edmodo and have become connected to a network for support and collaboration on issues relating to Edmodo and educational technology. As ECTs teach other educators how to integrate Edmodo in to their educational practices, it is useful to have an understanding of Bloom's Taxonomy and the SAMR model for technology integration. SAMR is an acronym that stands for Substitution, Augmentation, Modification and Redefinition. As instructors integrate technology tools into instruction, the model can be used to determine whether the technology application is enhancing or transforming the learning. The model, created by Dr. Ruben Puentedura, has four levels that explain the increasing impact of the integration from substituting another traditional learning method (such as writing with pen and paper) to creating a completely new learning style (such as students complete and present a team project using global videoconferencing and a virtual classroom). Additionally, ECTs will primarily be training adult educators how to use Edmodo with their students, so it is important to have an understanding of pedagogy versus andragogy as this can change your approach when teaching students versus training adults. The Purpose of this Assignment
- Demonstrate the ability to communicate with others by posting in a specific location.
- Become acquainted with other members of the cohort Completion Steps: "What am I to do?"
- Review the attached resources to learn more about Bloom's Taxonomy, the SAMR model and pedadgogy vs andragogy:

- Create a 1-5 minute screencast using your choice of tool. The screencast should
- showcase one Edmodo feature and provide information for how to use the feature and the importance or outcomes associated with the feature.
- Upload the screencast to a cloud storage site such as YouTube, Vimeo, or Google Drive with the setting "Anyone with Link may VIEW". While your Edmodo Library has unlimited storage and you can attach files to Edmodo Posts and Assignments, no single file can be greater than 100MB in size. Due to the size of video files, they must be housed in a separate location. The link to the video can be saved in your Edmodo Library and attached to Posts and Assignments.
- Create a Post in the Share Our Work small group that includes the link to the screencast.
- Open this assignment and attach a "Link from Web" and paste the link to the post in the Share Our Work small group, and hit the Turn in Assignment button.

- Gather resources and files that will inform your training participants about Edmodo and the focus of your training. You do not need to teach your participants everything about Edmodo. Remember you want to focus on using specific features for a specific purpose to teach other educators how to use Edmodo.
- Create your training class and small group(s). Load your class and small group(s) with posts, resources, and assessments that will engage your participants during the training. You do NOT need to add any members to this training class as you are not actually conducting a training at this time.
- And as you are building your training class, self-evaluate by thinking about the answers to these questions and making revisions to your training class as needed:
- Does the training class teach educators (not students) how to use Edmodo?
- Does the training class teach educators how to use Edmodo for a specific purpose?
- Does the class structure, including small groups, align with my training focus/ objective?
- Are the posts in a logical sequence?
- Do the resources provided in the training class inform the participants?
- Do the activities and assessments in the training class align with my training focus/objective?
- Will participants know how to use Edmodo for a specific purpose after completing the activities and assessments in the training class?
- The training scenario: What is the context/circumstances of your hypothetical training?
- The objective of the training: What is the goal of the training?
- The length of the training: How much time is needed for this training?
- The audience: Who will participate in this training?
- Edmodo Features: What Edmodo Features will you showcase in the training?
