The Audience
This course prototype has been designed for students who are enrolled in grade six and who reside in British Columbia as this course is based on the BC’s current curriculum. Students who are at the grade six level are not generally mature enough to handle the independent learning environments of online learning as online learning puts too much onus on the learner. For this reason, this course is designed for a blended learning experience where part of the work and instruction will occur in the classroom setting and part will occur online; more specifically, students will be given some class time to work online in the classroom on tablets or computers so the teacher will be able to give guided instruction on how to use the LMS and help clarify any questions students may have. It is also expected that students complete some of the work in this unit at home. Through the Digital Citizenship unit that has been developed for this project students will not only learn how to be good digital citizens, but will also put their knowledge to use as they are working through this unit online. Through monitoring from the teacher students will communicate with each other, participate in discussions, complete assignments and projects in a combined online and classroom environment.
