October Summary
This month has gone so quickly! We spent numerous hours
continuing our research of multiple case studies revolving around the environment
and context of real life. The beginning of the month we finalized our program
investigation and found many relevant programs to gather information from and
apply to our “real-life” examples.
Shortly after our program investigation, we continued our
weekly discussions on the information processing model, how the brain is wired,
multiple intelligences theory, mental processes of cognition, and Piaget’s
cognitive stages of development.
Between our weekly discussions and comments, we found the
time to work on our syllabus design. As a group, we were really proud of final
product. (Personally, I would sign up for our “real-life” workshop; I loved the
format and content that we created.) We could see how our program investigation
was the framework for our syllabus design. It has been rewarding to see how our
group efforts have come together to create a program that could be used in the
real world with many applications that adult learners could benefit from.
As a group, we came closer during the middle of the month as
we were assigning different parts to complete for our syllabus design paper. We
made a group pact to finish a few days early and give ourselves time to
proofread and finalize. Unfortunately, when push came to shove, we didn’t meet
our personal timeline, but still managed to complete the paper and submit it
before the class deadline expired. Go team!
We are looking forward to bringing it all together with our
project demonstration next month!
I've also enjoyed seeing all the parts come together and be able to work as a team to create a product we believe in:) Always good to aim for a little ahead of the deadline to give some breathing space even if it doesn't work every time. Good job!
ReplyDeleteI am happy for you being proud of your final product. Putting syllabus design together as group is a great work. Most importantly, the program you created could actually benefit adult learners in real life.
ReplyDeleteGood Job ! I enjoyed your monthly project and also had trouble with syllabus.

Our group also tried to get things done a few days early, but we also did miss our deadline. We got the paper in in time, but wish we had some time to overlook it. Aaron has really taken the lead in our class and is keeping us all together!
