Week Eleven

This was a very exciting week in MEDIA 365. My group had the opportunity to teach the class. It was my first time actually having a lesson plan and getting in front of a classroom to teach something. I felt pretty confident in my abilities but there are definitely ways to improve. Teaching Access is going to be a lot more difficult I have a feeling and will take just that much more work to perfect. One thing I will recommend my group doing for next week teaching Access is have the "word of the day" and have that word be Accountability. I think the student and the teacher should both be held accountable for the understand that the student is keeping up with the class. Too many times last week it was mentioned for nearly all groups that they were moving too fast or the group didn't make sure that everyone was together. How can the teacher know if the students are not keeping up when the teacher asks and the students say yes we are there even though they are not? It will be interesting to see how all of the groups improve over the next couple of weeks.
