Personal Instructional Goals

Allow students to search the internet to find relevant information
Keep an eye on all students computer screens
All computer screens must face inward to the classroom

Post Lesson Reflection of Personal Instruction

Students got sidetracked toward the end of the class but I was able to move students to different computers which allowed the class to get back on track
I answered questions and allowed students to use terms that they had heard before
I felt that students respected me as a teacher and can ask me anything.
