| Evaluation Summary Notes | - I enjoyed the energy of the presenter
- Everything was great! - Loved the penny experiment - Participating in a lesson as a "student" to see how an actual teacher implements these strategies - How to effectively set up a Driving Question Board - How to use Canva in a student-centered way. |
| Needed Changes | - Would like to see how an actual classroom with students runs
- Want to see the next step in the lesson - Want more time to work with content-area people - Want more time to work on personal lesson and unit planning |
| Next Steps | - Try out the strategies shown by the presenter
- Utilize Canva more in class - Try out the Question Formulation Technique - Develop a "What we know now" list for current unit |
