Teachers can have

students work
collaboratively on
a Storybird. With
this tool, students
can make the
story as elaborate
or basic as they
are comfortable
with and still have
a professional
product in the
end. (Example of
how Storybird can
be used to meet
the needs of all
learning abilities)
Students can
research a topic of
interest then create
a Storybird
including all of the
information they
learned then share
it with the class.

gifted student can
be challenged with
Storybird)

Other
Reflection:
This matrix helped me realize that the work we had done with Storybirds and Fair Use for this class is directly related to technology integration standards. I discovered how useful
one tool, Storybirds, could be throughout all the content areas and among different grade and ability levels. I also found out how imperative it is to teach Fair Use and Copyright
laws in every subject area because there are so many assignments students can be doing that will require research done on the Internet. These assignments can span the content
areas, so assignments that address Fair Use should also be used in every content area. It really is not as difficult as I expected it to be to use Storybirds and to apply Fair Use into
each subject. There are so many options I included, and I am sure that if I looked online, I would find countless others, so it is really helping me expand the technology area of my
TPACK. This matrix helped me realize that integrating technology into the classroom, especially into each subject, is not as difficult as it. I was able to branch out from just
creating a story about Fair Use, as we did for this class, in order to really apply both to each content area. (5 Sentence Reflection)
