400+ Ways to Show What You Know
Reflection
Personal comments on the learning experience:

Creating this list has changed my teaching more than any other thing that I have done--it is a constant reminder to make my student’s learning more active. Students enjoy opportunities to show what they know using their learning styles and creativity. They will often work harder if they are allowed to select their own assignment. Natural student curiosity about what others are doing results in sharing of ideas in the classroom. Incorporating student work into my teaching has made classes more interesting both for the students and for me.

How the lesson was reviewed by peers prior to submission and what you learned from the review.

Approximately 100 of the items on the list have been contributed by other teachers during workshops. Several professors from teacher education programs have requested permission to use this with their preservice teachers or in staff development programs.
