ASSURE Claseroom Case Scudy The ASSURE model is designed to help teachers plan that effectively integrate classroom use of technology and media.To lustrate howtouse the six steps of the ASSURE model,we provide a classroom case study of each step after it is described.These steps taken together constitute asampleASSURE esplan that describes the instructionplanfactalamteachers This ASSURE classroom case study describes the instructional planning used by Tiare Ahu,a high school English teacher who wants to increase student leaming and skills through the use,ofe referred to as e-portfolios.Tiare feels that her ninth-grade studentsoften lack interest in improving their writing and oral communication skills Her students typically complete each class assignment without reflecting on past learning experiences-thus inhibiting their ability togrow and improve.Shefirst addresse he by having students create paper-based portfolios of theirriting.

You will find that learning objectives appearing in cur riculum standards,textbooks,online lessons,and other instructional materials are written in a general format that often lacks one or more of the ABCD components.Teach- ers can modify such objectives to meet the specific learn- ing needs of their students.For example a district standard may state:"The leamer will be able to divide fractions.f you have students who struggle with math,you could adapt the objective by adding the following condition:"Given manipulatives,the learner will be able to divide fractions." The same objective for more advanced students would not include manipulatives. Many curriculum standards also lack the use of technol- ogy to assist students in achieving the learning objective. Therefore,you will need to modify standards to add the ap- propriate NETS for students (NETS-S)(ISTE,2007)by includ- ing technology in the Condition component of the objective, as in the following examples: Given spreadsheet software and data on population growth,natural resources,and global warming,sixth- grade science students will use a spreadsheet to esti- mate the impact of population growth on natural re- sources from at least three perspectives. .Given clip art and PowerPoint software,first-grade stu- dents will construct a four-slide presentation with one student-selected clip art image per slide to demonstrate four student moods:happy,sad,angry,and bored.
