FAQs - Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have to have Gen Y classes to use this guide? No. This guide can be used by any project-oriented teacher wishing to learn more about facilitating community service projects. The student leadership modules can also supplement existing classes, or be the basis for a new class. The curriculum has many ideas based on the exemplary Gen Y model, but at the core, is based on constructivist pedagogy and concepts of building a learning community in the classroom.
What experience does a teacher need to teach this course? Although sometimes taught by a technology teacher, these units often fit into a social studies course or other non-technology course. The technology skills used by the students are researched and learned by the students themselves over the course of the term.
What grade level does the curriculum guide address? This class can be given most successfully to middle and high school students. For service projects that are not on school grounds, students should have the maturity to handle themselves off-campus. The technology skills are also similar to middle/high school entry level technology courses, and meet the ISTE NETS standards for students. Since this is a project-based class, there will be some variation in the level of the tech skills of the projects, allowing the students to work to their level of interest and comfort with technology.
