- Abstract
Finding ways to encourage secondary students to meet the requirements of the Common Core State Standards is a challenge to teachers and to teacher educators. This study draws on research with three populations of students: 11th graders in a history class at a San Diego area charter school where a majority are eligible for free lunch and most speak English as an additional language, 47 secondary teacher candidates at a Northern California teacher preparation institution, and 20 graduate students in a master-of-arts online program in California were also participants. All were asked to integrate technology into their learning. Secondary students explored history through ePosters (Glogster), secondary teacher candidates incorporated ePosters (Glogster or Prezi), and practicing teachers in a graduate program chose from several formats for their ePosters. Students in all three groups completed their projects successfully and indicated deeper learning as a result. Implications and affordances of various tools are provided.
