What went well and what didn't go well during the implementation of your lesson?
-The first thing that comes to mind when considering what did not go so well during the implementation of my lesson was student interaction. This could have been due to how small the class sizes were and could change with a larger class; since I would have students work in small groups, I think that the student interaction and participation would increase. However, since students were working on their own throughout my lesson, I feel as though they were really focused on their lesson so it didn't leave a whole lot of room for classroom participation. On the other hand, the activities that I had in my lesson were pretty well-received and my students said that they had a lot of fun when working on the space exploration and mini-games. In addition, I think that my expectations in terms of the project were pretty clear and I received good feedback.
How well was the alignment to objectives and standards maintained?
-When thinking about how students responded to the lesson and looking over the Glogster pages that were submitted, I would say that the alignment to objectives were relatively well-maintained. Students were able to read text and bits of information and determine how and what they were going to visually relay the information that they had read.
Describe any modifications made during the implementation of the lesson.
-I don't think that I really modified anything in the implementation of my lesson. If anything, allotted times were changed a bit in order to allow students more time to work on their final project towards the end of the lesson. I did not designate a specific period of time for students to work on the activities but began to worry that students would be crunched for time when working on their Glogster page; the priority in my lesson was the ability to relay information learned rather than how much information students could absorb.
