Reflections on the Develop Stage

 The Develop stage is where all the planning starts to take shape. After completing flowcharts and storyboards, this step focuses on creating the actual project, adding graphics, animations, audio, and video. This stage makes projects more interesting and brings them to life.  

Archy’s group’s project on Italy helped me understand this stage better. They didn’t just use text but they added pictures, recorded audio, and even found music and videos. For example, a short movie of gondolas in Venice helped make their project feel real and connected to Italian culture. This showed me how using different types of media can make a project much more engaging.  


However, I also learned that this stage has its challenges. Archy’s group faced problems with large file sizes when recording audio and using videos. They solved it by using smaller MIDI music files, which taught me the importance of choosing the right tools and being prepared for technical issues.  


For me, this stage feels like preparing a lesson as a teacher. Adding visuals, sounds, or videos can make a lesson more engaging and help students understand better. But it’s also important not to include too much, as it can confuse or distract from the main idea.

  

The Develop stage is about turning ideas into something that others can see, hear, and enjoy. It’s not just about using fancy tools but it’s about making the project clear, interesting, and meaningful for the audience.

    University assessments often require extensive research, proper structure, and strong academic writing skills, which can be challenging for students managing multiple subjects and deadlines. From essays and reports to case studies and projects, every task demands precision and originality.

Evaluating Assignments

Image
 Hello everyone. Today I Will Give My Reflection on Evaluating Assignments.  When evaluating tasks and assignments, we need to look deeper than just the final product students submit. Assignments should match the skills and knowledge needed for the subject we are teaching, while also considering the technology students use to complete them. For example , an English assignment might traditionally focus on grammar or writing skills, but today, we might ask students to create a digital presentation, or use collaborative tools like Microsoft Teams to submit their work. This shift means we need to rethink how we assess students. Rubrics are a powerful tool for this. They help us clarify expectations and make grading more consistent. For example , a rubric for a digital presentation might evaluate creativity, technological fluency, collaboration, and language skills. These elements ensure we’re assessing the full scope of what students are learning, not just the 'bells and whi...

Cooperative Learning

As a Master's student in English education, I have encountered many teaching methodologies, but Cooperative Learning stands out for its unique approach to engaging students. Reflecting on its principles and potential classroom impact makes me see why this strategy could be transformative. Cooperative Learning goes beyond simply having students collaborate; it is about intentionally organizing teamwork so that every member actively participates and gains knowledge. It is based on key ideas like working together in a way that benefits everyone, face-to-face interaction, making sure everyone does their part, building good social skills, and thinking back on what worked and what did not. These elements together create a learning environment where students feel responsible for their success and their classmates' progress.  One thing that really stood out to me is the focus on positive interdependence, which means that a student’s success is linked to how well the whole group does. ...

Reflection on Project-Based Learning

Project-Based Learning is a way of teaching that makes learning interactive and meaningful. Instead of just reading from a textbook or taking tests, students work together on real projects that solve real problems. This approach gets them involved, helps them learn in a deeper way, and makes learning much more exciting. One thing I love about project-based learning is how it can fit different learning styles. Every student learns differently, some need visuals, some prefer practical activities, and others enjoy discussing ideas. Project-based learning allows each student to show what they’ve learned in their own way, whether it’s through drawing, acting, writing, or building something. This flexibility is a big reason why project-based learning feels so powerful for teachers and students alike. In a project-based learning  environment, the teacher doesn’t just lecture, but instead, they guide students through the project, offering help but also encouraging them to think independent...
