Since my lesson plan was based on monochromatic
colors my unit plan endorsed “color theory” as a whole.
After creating an introduction to my lesson plan on
PLAYground I can say that it is virtually a user friendly platform in which
widgets on the left panel give the option to apply videos, images, texts, link
sources, connect Twitter hashtags, display interactive questions, etc once they
are dragged and dropped into the designing field labeled as “canvas”. The user gets to choose from selecting and
arranging the widgets throughout the canvas.
The downside of the website are for the users that
create a PLAYground canvas. Drafts don’t necessarily get saved unless they are
published, and even though you publish them you are still at risk of loosing
your work. There is no advice that your work was successfully published. Additionally
in order to find your published work you have to find it by searching for it
with its tags. A final downfall was that once my work was published the boxes
showed overlapped to one another even though that is not the way that I wanted
to arranged them.
Even though the site needs to fix its glitches I
was able to successfully display the information just as I wanted in my PLAYground.
Afterall I believe that PLAYground compliments a
lesson plan because it has the power to engage the students with much ease, the
option to display pictures and videos motivate learning in an entertaining
manner.
I found your CANVAS quite interesting! I didn't know anything about monochromatic colors and your video along with all of your pictures really gave me great descriptions. All of your text boxes were appropriately sized and I found it very simple to navigate your CANVAS! Well done, I really enjoyed it!
