I appreciated seeing how each person\/group incorporated technology differently and built an experience for students that would be memorable and engaging. It was also super-informative to hear each presenter talk through their lesson plan and the strategies they would use along the way. I gained some confidence that I&#8217;m relatively on-target, and I also picked up some new ideas, tools, and approaches.<\/p>\n<p>I also appreciated the final reflection activity &#8212; and the fact that we could dribble our thoughts out in between the presentations. (As you know, I like reflecting, but it takes time to formulate my thoughts, especially thoughts about a 4-month-long adventure like this.) Reading over the comments was a great review of what we&#8217;ve learned&#8230;many important strategies and experiences came swimming back as I read over the comments. It is clear that asking for open ended feedback like that takes some bravery &#8212; you never quite know what you&#8217;re going to get &#8212; but I think that kind feedback is super-important, and the process of reflecting is also important for the student. So, thank you for modeling this for us&#8230;I am hoping to incorporate a lot of reflection\/feedback into my classroom, and this seemed like a good tool.<\/p>\n<p>Lynne, I will forever think of you when &#8220;I wonder&#8221; with my students. I wish you the best finishing up that doctorate, and hope to see you around!!<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Stohr, I look forward to seeing you again in a few weeks for another amazing course!<\/p>\n<p>Thank you to both of you for helping me build my skills, knowledge, and confidence, for listening with thoughtful patience as I worked through my frustrations with the messiness of lesson planning, and for kindling in me a true appreciation for &#8211; and interest in &#8211; Social Studies. I honestly never thought I&#8217;d ever say that last bit. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>-Lisa<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was so great to see all the virtual field trip presentations!
