Lesson Plans

The DWRL is pleased to share our depository of innovative technology-based lesson plans and classroom assignments created by DWRL Instructors. Our new online database features a wide assortment of lesson plans and assignments employing a number of technologies.

Here you will find everything from activities using cutting-edge new software such as NovaMind and eComma, to engaging, innovative, and truly novel pedagogical uses of familiar technologies such as Google Maps and Microsoft Word.

The lesson plans address a broad spectrum of pedagogical activities—from initial brainstorming to electronic peer review, from interactive visual rhetoric lessons to collaborative multi-media online publications; the site also features lesson plans suitable for time spans as short as a single class and as lengthy as semester-long projects.

Also, be sure to visit the DWRL's Blogging Pedagogy site which features an ongoing series of weekly interviews with individual instructors about their technology-based assignments, allowing for a more in-depth and personal look at our featured lesson plans.
