Module 1 Reflection

This module has made me think about my role as an instructional designer in the following ways:
     It has made me question my practices. I have asked myself numerous questions: Am I doing what is best for my students? Am I reaching my students? Am I making this an unforgettable experience for my students? If I am not able to answer yes to these questions, then I f need to reevaluate what I am doing in the classroom. Gone are the days of the traditional "chalk and talk" teacher. In the 21st century, I should be developing lessons that are go beyond the textbooks and actively engage the students. I have a commitment to my students to provide them with a learning experience that will benefit them outside the classroom.
