Reflection:

EXPRESS

As a teacher: How do I encourage creative approches of expression? What assessment strategies will confirm the learning? What media or technology will demonstrate the learning?  

As a learner: How do I demonstrate my learning through self-expression?  What communication skills do I use to express my learning?  What is the final product delivery medium?

Reflections on Inquiry 

Peggy O'Neill-Jones 

As a teacher:  How do I build in time for formal/informal reflection during the learning process?  How do I acknowledge the power of reflection in learning?

As a learner:  Do I purposefully reflect on my learning throughout?  Do I acknowledge the value of my own metacognition and its contribution to my learning?
