After everything that has been going on, I think we should establish a clear plan for what is to come. Xavier not only handled things in a random, unorganized, way for students to be confused and flustered with material, but I also think it was a quick switch for teachers Continue reading
As a new class especially online I think that we should do less group activities and do more things as a whole and as a class. I think we should do more engaging things and have more interactive assignments. We should stop doing so much group and pair work and Continue reading
Some ideas that I have for what we should start doing is a weekly recap for the work that we have done for the week and more independent work when speaking about our experiences with our readings. I would like to see a more organized method of how we relate Continue reading
