October 7 Reflection

One of the biggest takeaways from tonight is the revisiting of the educational theories.  Although I have learned about them in the past, it was very helpful to review them and I think I will have them more present in my mind for when I think about my students and plan my lessons.  Along with this, it really stuck with me how professor Chen reminded us to make sure that whatever we are doing in the classroom that we can back up with reasoning, theories, and our knowledge of our students and content.  That was really important and helpful.  Also, the idea of making sure that your planning, activity/assignment, and your assessment are all aligned is something that I will keep in my mind in planning my future lessons.
