Week 11 Journal Reflection-Self Evaluation

As I did the self-evaluation using the Asynchronous Lesson Rubric, I noticed the area I can work on is engagement. My lesson is organized and has students working on interactive features, however, there are no "creative risk-taking" tasks. I have been trying to come up with an activity that would be more risk-taking, but I haven't been able to find one yet. For my lesson, my students watch a video, work with groups during research (filling out a Google Survey), create a video, watch videos, fill out a note-catcher, and take a quiz through Kahoot. Both creating a video and using Kahoot are motivating and interactive features, however, I feel like it's not too risky. This lesson was created for a blended environment.

I do feel that my lesson does meet the criteria for content, learner-centered, differentiation, and assessments. The teacher mostly guides and facilitates the activities. The students really take control of their learning. Differentiation is met through the variety of products, processes, and content. Last, my students are assessed with both formative and summative assessments. The formative assessments are through peer evaluations, reflections, and self-assessments. The summative assessment is provided through a quiz.
