Field Activity

Task : For this Field Activity, you will design, test, and reflect on a lesson plan for a subject you teach, with a strong focus on assessment and real classroom implementation. You will define clear, measurable learning objectives, including at least one related to sustainability or the Sustainable Development Goals covered in Week 2, and design an assessment protocol aligned to those objectives. You will then test the lesson with learners, collect feedback from students, colleagues, or AI, and reflect on the experience in your learning diary. Students may participate in any phase of the design process. While it is recommended that your lesson include either 3D printing or work with biomaterials, this is optional as long as the chosen technologies support your learning goals and students’ technological readiness.

Process

  1. Learning objectives: Sustainable Development Goal 12 (SDG 12), Responsible Consumption and Production, aims to decouple economic growth from environmental degradation. 12.5-By 2030, substantially reduce waste generation through prevention, reduction, recycling and reuse. 12.5.1National recycling rate, tons of material recycled

Learning objectives for Grade5 students: 1.Engage effectively in a range of collaborativediscussions (one-on-one, in groups, and teacher-led) with diverse partners on grade 5 topics andtexts, building on others’ ideas and expressingtheir own clearly. a. Come to discussions prepared, having reador studied required material; explicitly drawon that preparation and other informationknown about the topic to explore ideas underdiscussion. b.Follow agreed-upon rules for discussions and carry out assigned roles. c.Pose and respond to specific questions bymaking comments that contribute to thediscussion and elaborate on the remarks ofothers d.Review the key ideas expressed and drawconclusions in light of information and knowledge gained from the discussions

2.Summarize a written text read aloud orinformation presented in diverse media andformats, including visually, quantitatively, andorally.

3.Summarize the points a speaker makes andexplain how each claim is supported by reasonsand evidence.

4.Report on a topic or text or present an opinionsequencing ideas logically and using appropriatefacts and relevant, descriptive details to supportmain ideas or themes; speak clearly at anunderstandable pace.

  1. Taking Action Individuals, businesses, and governments can all contribute

Select, list and describe 3-5 specific learning objectives for the lesson plan Learning objectives are clear, specific, and measurable. At least 1 is non-technical, and at least 1 is related to sustainability.

Develop a digital fabrication activity to support your learning objectives The activity aligns with lesson content, fits within the lesson flow, and uses technology appropriate to students’ technological fluency level.

Design an assessment protocol for the lesson plan. Assessment procedures are clearly described, align with learning objectives, and fit within the flow of the lesson.

Post detailed lesson plan on SCOPESdf and link from your learning diary. Lesson steps are clearly described and include teaching strategies and facilitation approaches to support implementation.

Test the lesson plan with learners and reflect on implementation and feedback on your learning diary. Reflection documents lesson testing, learner engagement, and feedback used to inform reflection and revision.

Reflection
