__Determine Relative Advantage__

Our team would like to address cross-curricular instruction. We are asked to include cross-curricular instruction of the core curriculum areas into our own classroom, yet we would like to see more of our content areas being touched on in regular education classrooms. Specifically intergrating the arts/physical education into the other classrooms. We are focusing on the Olympics as our topic. We want our students to understand that we are all part of a global society, and introduce them to the history of the Olympics. Technology will give us a window to allow students gain a deeper understanding of the topics that will be addressed in class. The main use of our technology unit will be to provide enrichment activities. Students will demonstrate their understanding of the unit through these activities.

There are many advantages to this technology based method. One is that it can make it easier to collaborate between the different involved experts (classroom and specials teachers). The initial effort by teachers for creating a project like this is pretty indepth, but very easily saved and revised for future use. All students would be exposed to the same information since every classroom teacher has easy access to the information. Since aspects of the unit are web-based, there is no expense involved as long as studens have daily access to a computer.
