What I have taken away most from this class is how to look at my lessons. I took a lot from looking at each of the learning strategies and finding new and easy ways to apply them, without having to reinvent the lesson.
When I evaluated the lesson that I modified for our final project, I found so many simple and quick ways to address the learning goals and student needs. When I saw the reactions of my students when I taught the mini-unit to them and the pride that they seemed to feel as they took control of their learning made me so excited.
I look forward to looking at many other lessons and units in this same manor. It isn't realistic to recreate and reinvent every bad lesson so that it can be great. But we can adjust details of it.
