Action Plan Hints from a
"Because this was the first action plan of the course, I guided the students through it. I gave them a due date and a calendar to record activities, progress, observations, feelings, comments and so on. I personally found this much more effective than past 'first attempts'. It gave the students a bit more focus. It also helped to do weekly progress checks as part of the class. "It was interesting to observe the students' growing interest towards each other's goals. By the due date students were checking with each other on their own to check progress. I think that this may have helped to build classroom unity. "I also set a goal and the students often inquired about my progress. "At the end, students were expected to summarize and evaluate. They assessed what worked, what did not work, and why. They were asked to state what they would change for next time." |
