Reflection #3.
Intensification of the Atmosphere!
In today's class much was taught, I most admit as the weeks patiently goes by, this course is becoming intense,especially with all the work loads. Today was one of those days for me, moods and stress.I felt a bit overwhelm with all the actives, yet I strive to push myself.
What I found a little challenging at first, was to critically analyses, Can snow exists on the equator? even though I was confident that it Can not exist, after to days session, I proved myself wrong.
As a results of my peers contribution in the defense that Yes snow can exist on the equator, you really do learn a lot from your peers.
Also the used of a simulation was demonstrated, that of the earth goes around the sun and the sun goes around the earth. Funny this was a bit of a Aha moment for me. In that of used this demonstration to better illustrate how the process occurs. I was excited and is hope to one day practice this in one of my lesson to come. This lesson has captivated my interest, significantly, which has push me to future study this process. In doing so I stumbled along this images, which i found quit
interesting.

I am often fascinated by the used of diagrams within the classroom to explain processes, also with the use of Think Pair Share and generally discussion/ debates, primarily because I consider myself to be more a kinesthetic/ Visual learning. Generally today's class was yet another stimulating one, just a bit overwhelming. However i am more than capable of conquering and be being successful at this course.As usual I appreciate the group working and ice breakers.
Don't worry its not you alone, we all do feel overwhelmed at times. Just take a deep breath.
ReplyDeleteHi!!!
ReplyDeleteI am as well fascinated by the many diagrams which also deepens my understanding even more for the content!!!
Great sharing in this post. You mentioned quite often the feeling of being overwhelmed. What contributes to that feeling? Under what conditions do you not feel overwhelmed? How can you make changes to feel less overwhelmed in class? Remember to use the rubric as your guide.
ReplyDeleteYes Miss,
ReplyDeleteGenerally,sometimes with the workload of other courses and having a life outside of UTT, "No Disrespect" it sometimes gets the best of me.
I am truly grateful of the activities and strategies be conducted within the class, It would apply significantly towards my future teachings. Thank you Miss.
however sometimes and honestly its overwhelming to take in all at once.
Nevertheless, I am adjusting myself to work within the condition and strive for the best. Even though the content is sometimes confusing after I conduct prior readings, I do look forward, to your lecture for clarification.I know I have a little challenge with time management which somewhat contributes. However I am more than determine to push myself.
