A rich and rewarding learning experience for all
Students embraced the project positively. These were Level 1 students who just started to get to know each another. It was amazing to see them sign up for groups within 20 minutes in the class following their orientation to the project.
The project recipe had all of the key ingredients for success including a clear, articulated process with lots of support throughout the project.
Watching the investment of creativity in the assignment and the engagement within authentic learning and assessment was a rich and rewarding experience for the students and Shannon.
