Content, Pedagogy, and Technology

The content we focused on for our lesson was: Utah Standard 2, Objective 3d: to describe and justify how the surface of Earth would appear if there were no mountain uplift, weathering, or erosion. To teach our content we used a class discussion, created lists as a class, and viewed Google Earth. Our Pedagogy was discussion and technology based. We taught the content this way so students could brainstorm and think for themselves about what the world would be like if it was flat and then experience and view what the world really looks like. Technology was an important part of our lesson because it enabled students to see and explore the various geographic features of our world.
