The collaboration is coming to an end and I'm reading over the evaluations. This was definitely a learning experience for me. Working with Brenda, who fortunately has experience in the school library, was great. She had some great ideas that I never thought about before and that I'd like to inplement this year when I do this project with my seniors.
The evaluations have been interesting to read, as well. There are some that I think, "yeah, they're right", "yes, that is a good point". It's always nice to get a difference perspective of things from someone else's point of view. I've always been a strong believer that anyone can give you ideas, even if they haven't been teaching as long as I, they still have a different way of thinking. So, I respect everyone's opinions and took them into consideration.
I will work on "perfecting" this project with my students this year. From here, we can only go up and learn more from each other.
It was also nice to see how a school librarian can really help me and I know that don't utilize our school librarian enough. Now that I know what can be done with both of us working on a project for the better of the students, it can only get better from here.

Faye,
ReplyDeleteNice reflection. I'm glad you are open to absorbing the reviews of your peers to make your unit more constructive and beneficial for students. Sometimes feedback is vital to our growth, especially when the stakes are not high for the person giving us feedback.
Good Luck in your future pursuits!
