Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
Having these fitness trackers will allow my students to learn how to track patterns in data by looking at a graph. Wearable technology is becoming a part of our daily lives. I hardly take a step that is not counted on my fitness tracker. This device will help motivate my students to move more throughout the day, and it also helps my students to be more aware of their health. They can monitor their heart rate and sleep patterns, much more than they did before using a fitness tracker. I have recently been challenging my friends and colleagues to weekly challenges. This has increased my activity level even more. All of this got me thinking about how to use wearable technologies, like a fitness tracker, in the classroom. Wearable devices promote active learning across curriculums.
Maybe a set of wearable devices, for my classroom, is out of reach.
I could still integrate wearable technology, like Fitbit, into my lesson plans. For instance, teachers could share their step counts with students and let them create charts and graphs. Teachers could create math problems using step counts. These could include everything from simple addition and subtraction to more complex problems to find averages, patterns, even standard deviations. A group of teachers could even get together to compete against each other and involve the students in tracking their progress. A fitbit is a good tool to have in the classroom for different activities.
