Lessons – You can decide whether you want to teach in class and have students follow along, or if you want them to watch the video before class and complete assignments during class time. Obviously, if you want them to walk in already having watched the video the class will need to know the week before. This will mean that the week 2 assignment will have to be an in class follow along.
Send me an email at jennifer.adams@stonybrook.edu with your top 4 choices to teach. I will assign single students or partners to teach.
Remember to craft your assignment in TED Ed. See review of how to create a lesson at the bottom of this post.
