Hey guys,
First I would like to thank you all for being such good participants during Chels's and my presentation. I wanted to read over several of your guy's blogs before I posted my own to see how you all took the lesson and what you learned from it.
We really wanted to see how you all dealt with the activity of not knowing exactly what the person before you was trying to say. I believe that many of you did learn a lot from this activity about how one message can get misshapen and changed from one person to another. Cory pointed out that this is one thing he learned from the activity so I will mark it as a success!!!
We also learned as facilitators that there is always more information you want to cover than the time provided. Chels and I had another activity we wanted to do, but realized that we were going to run out of time. I think it is good to realize this now rather than plan a jam packed session and not get all our points across next year as a mentor.
Each of us communicates in a different way and it is our job as a facilitator to ensure that each of our students are able to express themselves and learn with the rest of the class. It was a good point that was brought up in class that we should use multiple forms of media to ensure we meet the needs of an ever growing diversity of learners we will have in our classes.
I learned a lot from this teaching experience and cant wait for the next one!
Brandon, You had a good lesson in class. I learned a few things that will be helpful for next year.
ReplyDeleteBrandon, I loved the lesson. I can tell you take a lot of time to make your teaching experience worth it. I think you are a great role model for education and I can see myself learning a lot from you to help my educating experience be the best it can be! Thanks for all your hard work!
