Lesson Objectives (i.e. anticipated outcomes of this lesson, in point form beginning with an action verb) As a result of this lesson, students will be able to: Create short videos using the “Educreation” Ipad application Research Nutrition and Health online Promote correct Nutritional behaviours using ICT Teacher’s Prior Preparation/Organisation: 8 Ipads will be provided to the class for them to work in pairs, so these will need to be organized and made sure they each work properly with the intended “Educreation” application. As we are using the computer lab, teachers must make sure that at least 8 computers are running with internet availability, incase students require them for research.
Provision for students at educational risk: As students will be in pairs, it’s important to make sure groups are even In their ability and understanding of the Ipad. Students who are unfamiliar with this technology will be placed in a pair with fellow students who are. Teachers will continue to guide all students through the process.

LESSON DELIVERY (attach worksheets, examples, marking key, etc, as relevant) Resources/References Motivation and Introduction: 1) Teachers will place students into pairs or groups of 3 depending on whether numbers are even or odd. There will be emphasis on student’s digital literacy skills, so those who feel they are incompetent with the Ipad and sourcing information online will be placed in a pair with a fellow student who feels they’re competent with these skills. 2) The Teacher will provide a brief explanation of the lesson: How to use the Educreation application Acceptable means of research, such as scientific journals or credible websites Opportunities for questions and 3) Students will be shown by the teacher how to set up and use the Educreation application: Adding photos (saving from online to Ipad) Trimming Voice recording Drawing/ Erasing Deletion
8 Ipads with the required application 8 working computers Recommended Websites: http://www.rethinksugar ydrink.org.au/ http://heas.healthytoget her.vic.gov.au/schools/l unchbox-resources
Lesson Steps (Lesson content, structure, strategies & Key Questions): Activity 1 4) Teachers will provide students with the research question: “Sports drinks are popular amongst athletes yet have a very high sugar content. Compare one of your choosing with an d healthier option” 5) Provide the students with an example of what is expected in the time they are given (ie. 1+ slides with voice recording/ text/ animation to compare a sports drink with an d “healthier” option) 6) Students will begin their research using both their Ipads and/ or computers in the lab 7) Teachers will go around to each of the groups to check on their progress whilst also answering questions 8) Continue to give direction on the use of the application if needed

Questions and 9) Students are given the opportunity to show their work and provide on the task 10) Teachers will provide on their work, in regards to the successful use of the application and signs of competent online research 11) Students can ask questions regarding the application and task
Lesson Closure:(Review lesson objectives with students) Teachers will briefly go over the objectives of the lesson with the students, reflecting on their ability to learn and use an application within half an hour, whilst collaborating with class mates and researching information online.
Transition: (What needs to happen prior to the next lesson?) N/A Assessment: (Were the lesson objectives met? How will these be judged?) Lesson objectives will be judged on the students level of completion for their short video. A key element to reflect on will be the time limit given to the students to complete their work. As the objectives are based around the students being able to source information online and competently use the application to promote a health issue, the quality of their video will not be taken into . So the task will be deemed a success if each pair is able to produce a short video with clear evidence of research regarding the comparison of two “health” drinks and their sugar content.
