Can I enhance my students' learning by incorporating more economic analogies and interactive graphs into my curriculum and lessons.

In my effort to transform the traditional research paper assignment into a collaborative and innovative endeavor, my question changed. My question became:

Will using a different medium (other than a research paper) enhance my students' learning and increase their awareness and appreciation of their chosen topics?

]]> Summer Lab School Reflection 1 tag:iws.punahou.edu,2006:/user/jstevens/blog//38.1316 2006-07-24T17:40:43Z 2007-06-19T02:20:34Z My summer lab school experience was an excellent way to (almost) end summer school.

Jane Stevens My summer lab school experience was an excellent way to (almost) end summer school. In retrospect, having the lab school in the fifth out of six weeks was ideal. The work I had put into my economics course leading up to the fifth week, had been done at a rate that did not allow for ample reflection and processing time. The lab school setting allowed me to converse, reflect, and question by creations.
The comments from participating lab school observers pushed me to think beyond " my norm". Marco Torres was inspirational and seemed to validate all that I had done so far. His expertise in technology and the teenage mind enabled him to ask probing questions and accurately "assess" my assignments.
As I have stated before, I am thrilled to have built my "foundation" for the economics course. As Marco said "cry now, smile later", the hard work I put forth this summer will not be deserted once the fall commences as I plan on building upon what I have already established. I foresee more work, but the exploration and innovation will become more focused and streamlined as my ideas come to fruition.
The potential of the economics course (as we move towards a semester) is becoming clearer. The feedback I received from the lab school participants, along with my students is valuable and will continue to push my train of thought as further development occurs.
