Introduction:
The goal of the lesson is for students in the US to identify technology leaders in
French speaking countries while students in France will identify technology
leaders in the states. In addition, students will watch a short film regarding the
use of technology in underdeveloped countries. Lastly, students will pose
questions to their pen pals regarding the use and concerns of technology in their
lives.
Be the end of this lesson, students will be able to:
Write a letter on Google doc about their experience with technology and
the impact of technology in their lives to their pen pals and pose
questions to their pen pals
Identify major leaders in the technological field of French speaking
countries
Analyze how students and countries in the Francophone world use
technology.
Create inferences on how technology affects our lives
When students enter class, they each will receive an image of piece of
Step-By-Step
Procedures:
technology that has been invented in the last thirty years. Each student will
receive a different piece of technology (email, Internet, digital camera, email,
cell phones, social networking, GPS, ATMs, bar codes, and hybrid cars).
Students will describe how people use that technology, and how it has impacted
their life or lives or others. They will write this down on their opening/closing
sheet that they use in class each week.
1. Students will each record their responses on their opening/closing sheet
for the warm up noted above
2. Next, students will leave a voicemail through Google voice (202-6816706) explaining their invention and how it is impacted the lives of
others, as well as it has changed the world
3. Students, in groups of 4, will listen to the voicemails left by their pen
pals. The pen pals did the same activity where they left voicemails for
the students regarding their interpretation of the technology inventions
4. After listening to the voicemails form their pen pals, students will
engage in a class discussion regarding each of the different
technologies. They will be prompted by the instructor to explain the
similarities and differences between how our class felt about the
technology and the impacts vs the students in France viewed the
technology.
5. After the discussion, students will be broken into three groups of four
and each group will be involved in a different station. After twenty
minutes, the groups will rotate. Below are the three stationed outlined:
Students will be emailed each of the activities, so everything will be conducted
online and both classrooms can contribute directly online.
a. Ed-Ted How does technology effect our lives
https://ed.ted.com/on/z5sZRg38
Students will follow the steps to complete the EdTed activity. The focus of this
activity is to have students think about how generations view technology. They
will start by watching a video explaining stereotypical uses of technology by
generations. After watching the video, students will reflect on their viewpoint
of this idea and if they agree with the information presentenced in the video.
Each student will write his or her own comments that other can view and
respond. After reflecting on the video, students will search for an article
regarding a newly developed technology. In the discussion area, they will post
the article they find and provide a short summary on the new technology and
how it has changed society.
b. Lingt Language Developing Countries

For the second stations, students will be using their lingt language account.
Both teachers have access to the account and can view the students responses.
However, the students cannot see what others have posted. Therefore, once
each class has responded to the prompts, the instructor for each classroom will
play the conversations the students had regarding the prompt.
The goal of this station is to have students broaden their knowledge regarding
the use of technology in the francophone world, particularly in developing
countries. Students will be prompted to watch a video as well read an article
regarding this topic. Students will then have a conversation about how
technology can change the lives in developing countries and how it can help or
hinder those societies.
c. Blog Readings on leaders in technology
http://francais42013-2014.blogspot.com/
For the third station, students will be using their class blog to read about people
who have helped innovate technology. Students will read about the different
people or companies and post a reflection on how they think these technologies
will impact the world, but also pose potential challenges. Just like the other two
stations, students in both classrooms will be posting on the blog and students
must respond to two other people.
6. For the exit ticket to the lesson, students will write a letter on Google
doc to their pen pal. Students explain to their pen pal what technology
they use on a daily basis as well as their families. They will explain how
it impacts their lives on a daily basis and what life would be like without
technology. They will then pose 5 questions for their pan pals to
respond to regarding technology.
The students have been using the Google docs throughout the year for
similar activities as well as their means of communication. Both the
teacher in France and myself are on the Google doc to monitor what the
students write to one another.

Assessment Based
on Objectives:
Each of the stations has a portion that is submitted to the instructor. The
instructor will grade the portion that is submitted for completion and accuracy.
Each class participation assignment is based on a rubric given to the students in
the beginning of the year.
The rubrics for the speaking and written assignment are located at the end of
the document
Accommodations:
(Special needs /
gifted & talented)
Comments / Notes:
Final Assessment:
Throughout each activity there are multiple ways for students to access
information. In each of the videos viewed, there are ways in which students can
have closed captioning and/or subtitles. In addition, in using computers,
students have the ability to convey the information through a variety of ways
(writing or speaking). Students can also vary the length of their responses
dependent on their ability, as there is no set length to each of the responses.
Lastly, the instructor will group the students by students of varying levels, so
there is additional support for students at lower levels.
