Competency A Professionalism and Understanding:

Professionalism and Understanding: You demonstrate very satisfactory professionalism. You
seem to have established very good rapport with your MST and the learners. It was very
encouraging to see your MST actively engaged in scaffolding and helping with the setup of
the screen and computer. You also demonstrated very sound understanding of the content
presented in the lesson.

Category B Planning for Learning:

A very satisfactory lesson plan was forwarded in time before the lesson. The content was
appropriate and in line with the curriculum and pacing guide. The accompanying teaching on
the Weebly site demonstrated that very careful planning went into the preparation for this
lesson.

Category C Implementing and Managing Learning:

The lesson began promptly, albeit, with a slight glitch as the projector was being "sorted
out" with the help of the MST. The learners were quickly engaged in a warm up treasure
hunt activity. The "treasure" was an index card with info about the objective of the class. The
students were asked to. Turn on their computers log on to Google search and log on a
Weebly site with the lesson and objectives listed. Then the students were directed to open
the Photoshop editor - this was a very neat idea. Fantastic job setting up the desktops on the
student computers with the flower photo to prepare to edit. You did great pacing the
students as the students competed to finish first. Then more teaching points were presented
followed by student practice - this was a great example of Learning by Doing. You did great
engaging the students to complete each step as a show of understanding. The final practice
task involved going through the picture editing steps by going back to the opening screen
and using their own image to edit. Then they were asked save and send the image to the
printer. Finally, the winning team was presented with their prize of fancy pencil.
