Initial feedback -- Janewilde (talk) 19:24, 12 March 2013 (EDT)

Alysha, What a wonderful job you are doing. I so appreciate that you did a survey of some colleagues to inform your needs assessment. You offer an excellent model for the rest of the class on how to use the 3-5 part objective writing process. Now I wonder if you can tell whether your objectives measure intellectual, verbal, cognitive, motor or attitudinal skills? (Gagne's five outcomes) Keep up the excellent work. Check out some other portfolios when you get the chance. Claire's and Dwayne's needs analyses are different from yours but also very good.

On fire! -- Janewilde (talk) 17:08, 31 March 2013 (EDT)

Excellent work thinking through your design and beginning to develop your course. I see you used VUE to make your curriculum map :) I also like the personal tone of unit one. It is hard to think of your teacher as being present in an online class. Projecting your voice and personality into your text and layout is one way to do this well. As we launch into media this week, you will want to consider how to dress up your course with relevant imagery, maybe a video, or interactive activities. Jane

Alysha,

Your project looks great! The layout is very well organized and user friendly. I really love the idea of using a survey of your colleagues for the needs assessment portion - good thinking!

Alysha,

Wonderful job so far! Your topic speaks to me because I feel cooperative learning is one of the best ways for students to learn using the 21st century skills that will help them succeed in the global economy. As for the lesson itself, I think it looks great and I really thought your curriculum map laid the foundation of the mini-course exceptionally well. The setup of your portfolio page is well organized and very easy to navigate. I'm extremely jealous! You obviously are very well versed in how to use a wiki!

Best, Mike

Connection from objective to lesson -- Brian VanGorder (talk) 17:57, 6 April 2013 (EDT)

I really like how you have linked the lesson portion to a objective. I think that is often missing in lesson plans. We list objectives but sometimes they get lost in the lesson. This way your lesson correlate directly with your objectives.
