    After completing this unit, I’ve come to realize the importance of actively distinguishing the critical discernments in each lesson for better understanding of a concept. I began coming up with a list of discernments required to solve a problem each time, and it has helped me gather previous knowledge required to solve the problem. I feel that this can also help students so that they can approach a problem in a clear and organized manner. This can also help students determine what aspects of a problem they are struggling with.

    After trying some new ideas for prompting in my classroom, I noticed a positive change. Instead of just giving instructions, I started asking more open-ended questions to make students think deeper. For example, instead of saying “Explain photosynthesis,” I asked, “What do you think would happen to a plant if it didn’t get enough sunlight?” This made students more curious and engaged. I also gave them more time to answer and encouraged them to discuss their ideas with classmates. These changes helped students understand the material better and participate more in class.

    After trying out some of the new ideas for interpreting and deciding, it’s a great idea to share your experiences in the discussion forum. Let us know which strategies helped you understand your students better, any changes you made to your usual teaching methods, and how these changes affected your students’ learning.
