Overview
In the Week 4 activity, you defined the basic content of your three-lesson unit, described your intended audience, and chose your first modality.
Now in the Week 6 assignment, you develop detailed, comprehensive lesson plans for all three lessons in your unit. You need to consider how technology can be used to enrich each lesson and what challenges you may need to overcome to effectively use that technology. You also need to align each of the three lessons to one or more of the outcomes defined in the Week 4 activity.
By completing this assignment, you develop your skills in creating effective lesson plans and integrating technology into your teaching, and you also gain valuable experience in considering potential challenges and aligning your lessons with specific learning outcomes. These are important skills for a future educator to have and help prepare you for success in your career.
Instructions
Download the Lesson Plan Templates Download Lesson Plan Templates use for this assignment.
Develop three detailed, comprehensive lesson plans in the provided templates, filling in the blank cells with details about each lesson in your unit. Incorporate relevant technologies that enrich the learning experience and predict what specific challenges you might have to overcome to effectively use that technology.
Each template should include the following:
· Identify the lesson title, topic, audience, and modality.
· Define the lesson goal and objectives.
· Describe the lesson introduction.
· Outline specific actions that engage students with the material.
· Determine a method of consolidation.
· Select a technology to incorporate into the lesson, describe how it enriches the lesson, and what challenges might you have to overcome to effectively use that technology.
· Describe how learners' understanding or skills are assessed and graded.

Inclusive and Engaging Instruction
Part 1: Unit Outcomes
• Examine major concepts of inclusive learning and justify their significance in a
variety of classrooms.
• Use learning theories (behaviorism, constructivism, and social learning) to lesson
design.
• Create a single classroom activity that will meet various learner needs.
• Consider ways to enhance access and student involvement in learning.
Part 2: Unit Plan
Title: Planning Inclusive and Engaging Learning Spaces.
Topic: Inclusion education and learning theory implementation.
Modality: Online learning
Intended Audience: Trainee teachers or students of undergraduate education.
The three-unit lesson plan will expose future teachers to the concepts of inclusive
teaching and how theories of learning can be applied in lessons. Lesson 1 is centered around
basics of inclusion, diversity and equity in learning. Students investigate the actual classroom
situations and talk about obstacles to learning, and put the constructivist principles to work in
interactive dialogues.
Lesson 2 discusses the key learning theories, such as behaviorism, constructivism, and
social learning theory. Students do short case studies and collaborative activities illustrating how
these theories are used in instructional techniques (Navas-Bonilla, 1). This lesson has a focus on
active knowledge building and peer learning.
Unit 3 is focused on practice. Students create an inclusive classroom activity
incorporating at least one learning theory and meeting needs of various learners. They share their
ideas in a discussion board and get feedback by their peers, supporting social learning (Hunt, 2).
Access is facilitated in various ways of engagement, representation and expression.
Videos, readings, discussion boards are used to deliver the content to support various learning
styles. Different needs are taken care of by clear instructions, captions and flexible deadlines.
The activities will be culturally sensitive and flexible to learners with different abilities.
This unit is gradual in comprehending inclusion and translating theory to practice, thus
making sense and mastery.
