Ch 12 Reflection

I think that it's very important to "Reconsider when and how students learn" (228). The traditional classroom setting (25 students sitting in a classroom) is becoming less common with the spreading of flipped classrooms and online classes. Having different options for student learning is incredibly important because it allows students to choose the way that they would like to learn that will make them the most successful. Also, connecting with professionals during projects is incredibly important. One thing that I learned from my education classes this semester is the importance of letting your students know why what they're learning is important. Connecting them to professionals will show how what they are learning during their project is applicable to life. It can also encourage students to come up with questions that will further their learning to help them better understand the subject.

  1. I really like that you made the point of letting students learn the way they want to! I couldn't agree more. No teacher knows how a student learns better than the actual students. If we can get them to engage themselves then why not let them choose the path!
