Blog Phase 2: Reflection

1. Instructional Decisions/Teaching (InTask Standard # 9): Discuss the implementation process and describe
• What went well and what didn't go well during the implementation of your lesson?
• One thing that went well was the student interest in the activity. Because they were able to use the computer and make a little game out of the activity. The one things that didn't go well was that the lesson was too short. I will need to make the lesson longer. 
• How well was the alignment to objectives and standards maintained? 
• The standards were aligned and maintained throughout the lesson. Students were able to factor given numbers between 1 and 100. 
• Describe any modifications made during the implementation of the lesson
2. Mechanics:
   • What technologies did I use (for the teacher and the learner)?
   • The technology used for this lesson was the computer. Students used an app from google chrome to use factor trees on numbers 1-100.
   • How were the technologies used (by whom and in what manner)?
   • The computer was used by the students to use for factoring practice. The teacher would use the computer as an example and to help students who were struggling. 
   • My lesson was within the correct time frame
     • It was short because the students caught on to the factoring quicker than I had expected leaving extra time for them to chit chat. 
     • It was too long because…
     • The lesson was within the correct time frame because...
3. Assessment of Learning (InTask Standard # 6): Refer to Assessing Student Learning
• Include at least 2 digital artifacts that demonstrate what you or your students (peers) have created as a result of your lesson
• Describe your students' level of success in achieving the standards and objectives for your lesson based on your assessment
• The students were successful in learning a factor tree and how to factor random numbers between 1 and 100.
• Describe the level of success you had in teaching the lesson
• How do your individual reflections support this? 
• The individual reflections support their work and individual ideas on how to factor. 
• How do the comments from your classmates support this?
