Now, it’s time to take your new knowledge from theory to practice. Your final task is to create a complete lesson plan for one of your upcoming classes.
Your lesson plan should:
- Clearly state a learning objective that focuses on a specific student competency.
- Incorporate at least two different learning activities that you’ve learned about in the course (e.g., a micro-task, a reflective prompt).
- Include a low-stakes assessment to check for understanding.
- Briefly explain your pedagogical choices—why did you choose these specific activities and assessments?
Once you are finished, share your lesson plan on the course’s discussion board. This is your final chance to get peer feedback and see how your colleagues are applying the course content.
