Model 1 reflection

1. I don’t think this module has really made me think differently, but has inspired me to try and incorporate more project based learning. When I first started teaching, I used a lot of project based, group learning. Students loved these units. But as we were held more accountable to Pacing Guides, and district guidelines, I was no longer able to do these kind of units. I like to be a facilitator rather than standing up in front of the room and being a lecturer. I have already written a number of units, and students love projects, I am happy the district now allows us some freedom to incorporate them.

2. I don’t know how easy this will be to use for math. I don’t see as many long term projects in math, as I would in science or history.
