So my first trimester of setting up and maintaining a classroom blog with my Precalc Functions students went very well. Some of my students have a natural ability of writing and they really hit their stride when it came to their weekly blog. Some students didn't quite understand the idea of writing about what they were learning or had difficulty with and we can work on that for second trimester. I have a new group of students and I'm excited about making the improvements to the blog and how I use it on a daily basis.
I was really happy about the online presentations students made for their Developing Expert Voices project. The creativity and self reflections were probably the best part. Students found this project at the end of the trimester really beneficial as they reviewed for the exam. I will continue to use this project and tweak it for this trimester and a new group of students.
