Therefore, even before I was fully immersed, I was taking attendance trying to put a face to the name and making students more personable to me. In addition, I was…

by the outcome number and course outcomes chart on the original syllabus. Dr. Fink (2003) stated that the key components of integrated course design were to “analyze the situational factors, formulate the learning goals, design the feedback and assessment procedures, and select the teaching/learning activities” (p. 2).

Analysis of the Media Specialist & Media Program On Friday, February 10, I met with the Media Specialist at Valley Elementary School in Jefferson, MD for 45 minutes. She is a McDaniel graduate and had no teaching experience before she became a Media Specialist. She loves being a Media Specialist and working with young children. This shows in her demeanor when she talks about her program. I was immediately energized when I entered her space as it is attractive and fun. I wanted to bring my…

There was a nice blend of levels of knowledge present during my observations. It was evident that the framework was in place to slowly build students’ level of understanding. Mr. Marsh stated the students can reach a deeper understanding of thought by the use of different assessments. He required…
