Welcome to

education 5203

Work completed for my Education 5203 course shall be uploaded to this page.

Artifact #1

This is my first artifact, it is an image that I have created to act as a stamp/logo for my website and any other online profile. I believe I can use it for social media accounts, business, and imaging for any work with my name attached to it. I initially had the idea to create this image after an assignment that I gave to my students. I decided that I could make a "business logo" and can use this now as an exemplar for future lessons.

Artifact #2

This is my second artifact, it is a Google Form that I adapted into a quiz for a wetlands unit. I have found google forms to be incredible useful for assessments because of the options available. I am able to a variety real graphics, links, and questions/answer formats. Also, once each student/participant has completed their quiz, they receive feedback on their marks and successes/struggles. I have built off of this experience and used google forms for a range of formative and summative assessments.

Artifact #3

For my third artifact, I created a video that showcased my school. I was very proud of this video as I was able to use a variety of text styles, design elements, and audio/video choices. Due to FOIP issues, I have not posted this video. However, as a replacement, I have left a few "mannequin challenge" videos that I made with a class a couple years ago. Enjoy!

Some quick ideas for summer! Sunshine, Barbecue, and Repeat!

Summer is a great time to spend time with friends and family! Try to get outside, be active, and enjoy the many events that Calgary has to offer! Sicome Lake in is only a couple dollars for admittance and serve food and beverages when inside. The Taste of Calgary will be downton starting on August 9th the 12th, don't miss the opportunity to try a wide variety of Calgary's cuisine.

“I can't wait to hit the beach! I love summer because I get to see my friends and do lots of fun stuff.”

Students are often nervous to come back to school after the summer and that is completely normal! With summer months usually being so warm and inviting, it's only natural to be a little sad to see it come to an end. Try to make the most of Calgary's excellent weather but be sure to stay hydrated on those extra hot days!
