Talk:UNIT II-- Why Schools?

Instructor Comments on your course -- Jz833665 14:05, 22 November 2009 (EST)

A few suggestions:

• You need to set up a "front page" for this course, which is different from your portfolio page. e.g., Concept_Mapping_Across_The_Curriculum
• As we communicated earlier, you need to focus on research-based understandings and strategies drawn from key references. I have not seen your references.
• For a topic like yours, it would great to begin with a story/case showing the nature and urgency of the problem, and then revisit the same story/case in later units to generate strategies to address this problem through classroom designs.
• You may find good videos/pictures online so that the course won't be too text-heavy.
