Any method of having the students teach one another is a great opportunity for learning. When they record themselves, they want to make sure they have the correct facts.
I like the idea of build agency and focusing more on the process than the outcome to build students up so they take ownership.
I think it is important to reach out to all students learning abilities, wether is be visual, audio or hand-on.
I appreciated the use of video learning as I have seen the struggles of those who would otherwise fall off the mark, remain engaged and active in the process until they had actually had a substantial feeling of accomplishment. This type of positive learning environment bolsters energy towards a strong neurologic trend in learning.
This year, I had students choose many of their own cooking projects and gave them choice in how they showcased their work. Videos were a popular choice.
"Building Student Agency" raises awareness of what they are capable of achieving and pushes them to do more than what they thought were capable of. I plan on utilizing building student agency in the classroom.
Having lab activities and hands-on learning helps students visualize the goal. I enjoy lab days and watching the lightbulb click and the student(s) put everything together. Pictures are a 2D world and the information sometimes cannot build a real connection to all the information.
In this lesson I learned that we need to build student agency. With buildingof student agency you are building studnets sense of self-efficacy. With the CTE labs students work with more independence and responsible than they have in traditional classroom, everything they do give tem results they can see.
