You have a lot of freedom in how you want to complete your assignments. You are able to work in the way that makes most sense and is most effective to you.

Figuring out ways to make my lessons beneficial, accessible, and engaging for all types of learners. Thinking outside of the box to make sure that any student is able to be successful, and adjusting my lessons if that is not the case.

I enjoyed being able to draft an entire grades worth of science curriculum and then fine tune smaller units. Also, 3 out of my 4 classes this semester taught UDL practices, and this class was the one that helped me understand it the best!

# data[].attributes.body
I like how the class is mostly discussion-based. This allows me to better understand the material and learn new ideas from classmates. I also appreciate how we are given different options on how to complete the assignments.

# data[].attributes.body
The knowledge that changed most for me from this class is how to create mini units from a larger unit. I now feel more comfortable with making lesson plans that are engaging and accommodating for all students.

That you will have the opportunity to create your own lessons and teach them to peers, which is good practice and very beneficial for our future teachings.

As stated before, probably the way the UDL was defined and ways to implement it were explained

The idea that changed most for me was the frameworks UbD and UDL. I was aware of these frameworks but after this class I was provided with more practice and information and I am now able to define it and provide examples of them as well as the differences between them.

I liked how we had online discussions as well as in person discussions. This helped me to get a better understanding of others thoughts and ideas.

Before this class I had a very basic understanding of UbD and UDL. This class helped me to learn more about both and how to use them.

I really appreciated that there was an accompanying transcript for all of the assigned videos because it made pulling quotes much easier.

I have enjoyed how this class opened my eyes to teaching science in a way that was different from how I was taught science most of my life. I like how we focused a lot on the bigger picture and an end goal when creating lessons. I also liked the flexibility that we had when it came to our own work the different means of expression we were able to use.

How to create lessons using UbD and UDL as I had previously learned about them, but never actually implemented them.

# data[].attributes.body
One skill that I have improved upon is being able to determine WHAT it is I want students to know and then coming up with activities based on what I want them to learn instead of the other way around.

I hated science growing up and I have become more excited throughout this course to integrate science topics and lessons into my future classroom because my lens has shifted on what science can look like.

Something you said in this class that resonated with me was when you talked about how as a teacher, you always need to be knowing what you want your students to be able to do by the end of the lesson.

I liked how you would start off the class with dad jokes! Also, I liked learning about UDL and understand why it is so important. We have learned that curriculum is not designed to fit the "average", and if it is, we have designed it for nobody. With this in mind, it is important we include multiple means of representation for our students.

I liked learning about how stars are formed. To be honest, I feel like I had very minimal background about this topic, and I can honestly say that I feel as though I am more well rounded about it. This is critical knowledge to have as an educator, as students will most likely be learning about stars in the upper elementary levels. I am happy that I got to learn more about this.

That the class has an informal format and that you have a ton of freedom with your projects and assignments! And that an answer is not necessarily a wrong answer! Plus you get to call him Tom!

How to create lesson plans from scratch based on UDL and UbD.

This class was the first class I have felt truly understood in. Having multiple means of expression made it so comfortable to do any assignment. The environment created in this class was unlike any I have had in other classes. It was unanimously comfortable and Tom will help you with anything you need help with.

I liked how there wasn’t too many weekly assignments. I could get the discussion and the assignment done in under 2 hours

# data[].attributes.body
The only somewhat new concept for me this semester was UbD. In a few other classes professors suggested that it would be better to lesson plan backwards. But never introduced the meaning behind it like UbD gave.

# data[].attributes.body
I’m not really sure. This class was too basic for me personally. The content we went through was not new or challenging information for me. I wish I was challenged more throughout this course, I think if I was challenged I would have put more of an effort in to change or learns skill ideas etc

# data[].attributes.body
The environment of this class is very informal and very low risk. You can really put yourself out there in ways that you may not be able to in other classes. You will inevitably make mistakes, which you can then learn from. In all likelihood you won't be coming into this class to learn science, rather you will be learning how to convey science and the methodology that works best for you.

# data[].attributes.body
I would say I learned the most about lesson planning. Specifically, how to make lessons that naturally flow from one to another. Also, how to ensure that your lessons touch on all of the key concepts from that unit.

Tom's jokes are horrid.

I liked having freedom of expression, especially in output. I feel that Tom was very flexible in assignments and allowed for learning in whatever way made the most sense to you personally.

# data[].attributes.body
I learned a lot about UbD and UDL as well as lesson planning, as well as how to specifically apply those ideas to science concepts to best stimulate student understanding.

# data[].attributes.body
I think something that I definitely took from this class is just because I may have had a negative experience with science when I was a kid, that doesn't mean that my students have to.

# data[].attributes.body
I think it was important that we focused on the multiple means of learning because there is a lot of children who are at a disadvantage because of the way that teachers only teach for the average student and not with each individual student in mind.

Understanding

Tom is super helpful and understanding. He treats us as humans and adults rather than just students. He is realistic and understands that not everyone learns the same.

# data[].attributes.body
Different ways of learning/expressions

Most of the time I saw myself thinking about different perspectives of how to learn a same topic, because everyone learn differently I must be prepared to face this with my future students too
