Independent Project Reflection

Independent Project Reflections

Now that you're done presenting your projects, write a blog post sharing and reflecting on your experience.  Answer each section as its own paragraph, in complete sentences.  Remember, we want your posts to make sense to people who look at them without knowing what questions you're answering.  Include the following:
  • Embed your project into your blog.
  • Briefly describe your project, both your topic and the format in which you presented. 
  • What do/did you like most about your project?  Explain. 
  • What was the hardest part of this project, and why?
  • How did you improve as a learner or as a student during the process of this project?  Explain.
  • If you could do the whole thing over again, what would you change and/or improve?  Why?
  • If you have any genuine suggestions for Mrs. Edlin about how to improve this assignment or how to make this project more meaningful to future students, please include them at the end.
Publish your blog post, and after you publish, please comment on the posts of at least three other people.

When you finish, you may visit any link under Idleness Prevention Society at the left-hand side of this blog.
