Claymation project and NETS

There were many aspects of our Claymation project which addressed the NETS for teacher's model. The project facilitated learning and creativity. Not only did we learn to use technology, but were encouraged to be creative in the Claymation process. We were required to use new technology and coordinate the linking of technologies. Working in groups helped to address citizenship and responsibility. My group was able to utilize their skills by using styles that worked best for them. And we showed responsible social reactions within the group. We engaged in growth by exploring the creative side of technology. This helped us all to learn through each other. We also had to infuse technology, participate in decision making and learn the leadership skills of the others within the group. This is an excellent project to utilize many of the aspects of the NETS model. It fosters numerous learning opportunities regarding technology and working with others.
