Artifact 2

As a student in the elementary education program at Appalachian State University I have learned the importance of the North Carolina Standard Course of Study. As a classroom teacher I need to be familiar with these goals and objectives. Using this artifact I can quickly determine what will be expected of my students in the area of computer skills.

Being familiar with the North Carolina Standard Course of Study will enable me to create lessons that will provide my students with the appropriate information they need for their specific grade level.

This artifact is a copy of the curriculum guidelines provided by North Carolina Public Schools’ Infoweb. This can be found at http://www.dpi.state.nc.us/curriculum/computer.skills/5.html
This artifact meets competency goal 10.1 by listing the goals and requirements of what my future students should know and be able to do regarding computer skills. This artifact also helps me understand what I should be testing my students on, and therefore it meets competency goal 10.5.
By finding a lesson on the computer skills curriculum website I meet competency goal 10.4.
