I basically went through all the things that I've done during this semester for this TESL class, from the start of the semester when we learned to post our reading responses on the forum sections of Tronclass and record our voices on Padlet, to the teaching presentation where we taught some basketball knowledge, and design rubrics which was what we've done recently.

ronkuo13 — 2025-05-28 14:58:28 UTC

After making this video, I can now easier reflect on what I've done both great and bad during this semester and where I can improve in future classes. Thinking back, I think that I worked well with teammates, I had little to no conflicts with my teammates when we were doing group projects, I think that's one of my strengths. One thing that I could've done better was to keep track with what needed to do, like assignments, I think I mis-submit some assignments because I forgot about the due dates for them.

It starts with the basics, like understanding what learners need and how curriculum design is different from lesson planning. I also talk about using objectives (like Bloom's Taxonomy!) to make our lesson plans better. Then, I show how we put everything into practice, from our lesson plan drafts to creating our own course for the mid-term. Finally, I cover learning about and making rubrics, which helped us think about how to assess tasks fairly. It really shows how much I've learned about creating meaningful lessons!

After creating this video, I find it easier to reflect on both the strengths and weaknesses I’ve shown throughout the semester, as well as the areas where I can improve in future classes. Looking back, I believe I collaborated well with my teammates—I rarely had any conflicts during group projects, which I consider one of my key strengths. However, one area I could have handled better was keeping track of assignments. I missed or mis-submitted a few tasks because I lost track of the due dates, so that’s definitely something I need to work on moving forward.

Beyond Testing: What I Learned About True Assessment

2025-05-29 01:13:08 UTC

Highlights from the project include discovering that assessment is a holistic process that encompasses all student activities rather than just exams, exploring the distinct purposes of proficiency, diagnostic, and placement language tests, understanding the crucial role of validity and reliability in ensuring fair and accurate standardized

assessments, and realizing that true evaluation goes beyond assigning grades to genuinely support and measure learning.

As I put down all the details about needs analysis, and the difference between curriculum design and lesson planning, it really helped me see the progression of my own understanding. Going back through our lesson plan drafts, and especially recalling the first draft to the second, really highlighted my growth. It's cool to see how adding those specific domains made our plans so much more robust. Thinking about our mid-term project, where we had to build our own course, and I realized we did a pretty good job!

Reflecting through the process of making this video, I’ve found it easier to think about both the strengths and areas for improvement in my performance this semester. Looking back, I believe I collaborated well with my teammates — we had smooth communication and very few, if any, conflicts during group projects. I see that as one of my strengths. However, one area I could improve on is staying organized with deadlines. There were a few times I either missed or mis-submitted assignments because I lost track of due dates. Going forward, I plan to work on better time management and keeping a closer eye on what’s expected each week.

This semester's course design class was a fast-paced journey that transformed my understanding of teaching. We began by building foundational knowledge through readings and online discussions, where I gained significant clarity from classmates' shared insights. We then delved into defining and categorizing key terms, solidifying my grasp of their relationships. The most impactful part was the hands-on course design and simulation, where I applied theoretical knowledge to practical scenarios. Witnessing a senior student expertly adapt our course outline highlighted the dynamic nature of teaching. This experience, including collaborating with teammates, revealed the immense preparation involved in even a single lesson and the vital two-way feedback loop between students and teachers. It truly shifted my perspective from student to educator.

After making this video, I realized even more how much there is to learn from this course—and that none of it is easy. Looking back on my performance, I can see which parts I really understood and which ones I still need to work on. During group discussions, I noticed that I didn’t contribute many original ideas. Most of the time, I just agreed with others and supported their opinions. I know this is one of my weaknesses, and I really want to improve it. In future activities, I’ll do my best to speak up and share more of my own thoughts.

At the start of the semester, we began by reading several articles on curriculum design and uploading our summaries and discussion questions to TronClass, while recording our reflections on Petlet. Although reading those dense texts was challenging, I now feel a strong sense of accomplishment for having completed them.

To better understand the specialized terms in the readings, I used tools like the whiteboard and sticky notes to organize my thoughts. This strategy also helped when responding to the teacher’s in-class questions and made the knowledge easier to retain.

What left the deepest impression on me was designing a lesson plan and presenting it in an actual classroom setting. I realized that while writing a plan is manageable, executing it effectively is the real challenge. This experience gave me newfound respect for teachers—the success of a lesson often depends on the experience and preparation behind it.

As the course progressed, we explored assessment methods, including how to design rubrics, create test papers, and evaluate the effectiveness of various generative AI platforms. I especially appreciated this part, as human-AI collaboration is an emerging trend. I’m grateful for the opportunity to work with these tools and hope to apply them in future teaching contexts.

This semester, I focused on several key areas:

I started with Curriculum Design, learning to craft learning journeys and adapt them Across Age Levels. Then, Lesson Planning taught me to structure lessons and differentiate them Across Proficiency Levels.

My practical work included a group teaching demo on topics like basketball, and a group role-play midterm where we planned a trip to Los Angeles for kids.

Finally, for our group project, we used AI tools like Diffit and Eduaide.Ai to create educational content, such as lessons on weather and daily routines. My work culminates in this showcase video, a Voki reflection, and peer comments.

Briefly summarize: In this class, I learned that curriculum design involves much more than just creating a lesson plan—it starts with a syllabus, includes clear objectives, and breaks content into smaller parts. Effective teaching requires thoughtful planning of all elements, including lesson structure, classroom activities, homework, and assessments. I also gained a deeper understanding of assessment principles such as alignment with learning content, consistency, reliability, and especially validity. We practiced designing tests and rubrics, and I learned to use AI tools to improve my work, which I believe will benefit my future teaching career.

Looking back on these activities, as well as the lesson plans my group members and I designed—followed by the rubrics and test content—we created, I truly felt that I gained new knowledge and gradually made progress. Although I was occasionally absent or missed a few assignments, I still tried my best to pay attention in class and learn new things. Especially during the midterm exam, I was able to respond to the teacher’s questions, so I think I did fairly well.

Using teaching rubrics has transformed my assessment approach. Initially seeming like mere requirements, their benefits are clear. Rubrics offer vital clarity, outlining expectations and making grading transparent, which guides students and cuts down on grade disputes. They also ensure fairness: by using a consistent framework, all students are judged by the same standards, removing bias and building trust. Importantly, rubrics help me refine my teaching by showing where students struggle, making my grading more objective and my teaching more responsive.

This semester, I learned how to craft engaging lesson plans tailored for kids, focusing on play-based learning and child-centered teaching to foster their natural curiosity. I also gained insight into effective classroom management and adapting to diverse learning styles.

A112270031王佑歆

a112270031 — 2025-06-05 03:19:50 UTC

I took some time to reflect on this course. While I wouldn’t call myself a model student—I sometimes submitted work late and didn’t always perform my best—I still learned a great deal. The various assessments pushed me to think more deeply about what it means to be a good student and how to apply what I’ve learned, especially in designing and using lesson plans effectively.

The course itself was well-structured, and I truly appreciated how clearly the teacher laid out the objectives and guided us through each step. Among all the classes I’ve taken, this one stands out as the most thorough and practical. It’s one of the few that I genuinely believe will be useful to me in the future.

After this whole semester's course, I found that the curriculum design was much more complicated than I thought. Not only students' level or environmental factors should be considered, but also whether the equipment is complete and other problems. This semester, the teacher gave a lot of homework, built a lot of discussion areas for everyone to share their ideas with each other, and designed a lot of presentations to discuss some proper nouns. I think what I should improve is to complete more homework, because I have one or two homework that have not been completed.

Reflecting on this recent showcase, I've come to realize just how much depth and complexity emerged from reading those four articles – far more than I initially anticipated. Honestly, as I revisited my own notes and then listened to or browsed through the insights shared by my classmates, a sense of frustration and pressure began to creep in. My learning pace tends to be a bit slower, and it often takes me more time to fully absorb and comprehend certain concepts. There are moments when I'm genuinely impressed by the remarkable output and understanding displayed by my peers. It makes me acutely aware that throughout the remainder of this semester's course, there's significant room for personal growth and improvement. I'm committed to dedicating more effort to deeply engage with the material and refine my approach to learning.

2025-06-13 07:08:27 UTC

I also made a Voki to reflect on my learning process. It shows how I gradually made progress and gained confidence during the course.
