For the culminating assignment in this course, you will design your own project that creatively demonstrates how you will integrate technology/new literacies into your classroom in meaningful ways as a result of what you learned during this course. Your project should exhibit your understanding of the skills students need to be successful in the 21st century and create experiences for students that utilize best instructional practices for integrating these skills into literacy instruction. For example, your project may demonstrate how you empower learners to actively create, collaborate, and/or design. Be sure to include the grade level and specific standards that may be addressed in your project. Ultimately, this project could take many varied forms, so be creative!

| For the culminating assignment in this course, you will design, adapt, or remix an OER resource to share on OER Commons (https://www.oercommons.org/), then implement it in your classroom. You can design your project from scratch, adapt your project from existing work in your classroom, or adapt, remake, or remix an OER that already exists on OER Commons or in the class shared resource collection on Google Docs. After designing, adapting, remaking, or remixing your OER resource, you are required to upload it in EDR 529’s shared resource collection and on OER Commons using the resource or lesson builder. When you submit your work to Blackboard, you should include a link to the resource on OER Commons. Your project should creatively demonstrate how to integrate technology/new literacies into your classroom to support literacy learning in meaningful ways as a result of what you learned during this course.
