Technology Integrated Instruction Examples

Integrated Instruction Examples "The Oregon Trail Experience" (4th-5th Grade)
Below are links to example instructional integrations I created for an undergraduate educational
technology course I used to teach. My students worked through assignments that illustrated how
to use anchored instruction as a focus for infusing the Microsoft Office applications of Word, Excel,
Access, and PowerPoint into teaching. I utilized the Oregon Trail software game as the anchored
instruction and theme for the example unit. The students were then to create their own units of instruction
that integrated technology. The PowerPoint presentation is in PowerPoint Show file format (.pps),
so you'll need PowerPoint loaded on your computer in order to view it.

Integrated Unit "Succeed by Listening" (9th-12th Grade)
Below are links to an integrated unit created by a former undergraduate student I had that is an excellent
example of how the software applications of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access, and Web Authoring
(using Word) can be utilized around anchored instruction, which for this unit was a video entitled
"Succeed by Listening." I converted the files from their native formats (.doc, .xls, .mdb, .ppt) to
.pdf and .htm formats for web display purposes. The PowerPoint presentation is in Show format
so you'll need PowerPoint loaded on your computer in order to view it.

(using Word) can be utilized around anchored instruction, which for this unit was the software program
"Arthur's First Grade." I converted the files from their native formats (.doc, .xls, .mdb, .ppt) to
.pdf and .htm formats for web display purposes. The PowerPoint presentations are in Show format
so you'll need PowerPoint loaded on your computer in order to view those files.
