Summary and Synthesis

I was really confused on what we were doing and how we were doing everything since the last time I blogged. I felt that we did not cover the material we were going over in much depth and I was not getting what I was suppose to be getting out of class. The mid-term exam then kind of snuck up on me and I did not know for sure what to expect from it. I remembered talking about a lot of the things that was mentioned on the review guide, I just did not know for sure what Dr. Reins was expecting. Since the last time I blogged and now that the mid-term is over, I really have a better understanding of how this kind of teaching has an impact on somebody and how we need to relate this kind of teaching when we teach. I know how to have students problem solve, think critically, and remember the information that I teach them. If they do not remember the information that I teach them ten years down the road, such as equations, they will know how to come up with the equation on their own. I am gaining a better perspective of this class and now I do believe I am getting what I am suppose to get out of this class.
