(I teach adult/alternative education, all subjects, grades 9-12, reading levels 0-12.9+.  Main idea of lesson for them to design community resources on various chosen topics: parenting, housing, cash assistance, medical assistance, substance abuse...)

CUES, QUESTIONS, AND ADVANCE ORGANIZERS (What technology resource will you create or use to help cue the learning for the students?)

NONLINGUISTIC REPRESENTATION (What Nonlinguistic Representations can you use

Students will have started their Exploratree already, that is one type of representation. I would also like them to use bubble.us to start brainstorming about the resources they could include in the directory.

SUMMARIZING AND NOTE-TAKING (How will you have students take notes or summarize their learning?)

The students can use their Exploratree and their bubbl.us graphic to summarize learning

ASSIGNING HOMEWORK AND PROVIDING PRACTICE (What technology resources can you use).)

Completing their bubbl.us and trees will be their homework.

Wow, Exploratree really does address several of the strategies.  Great idea choosing a reasource that hits all of these!
