Reflect, evaluate and share with others 

Having planned how you would use games and shared feedback, you will now use the key questions below to help evaluate your plan and those of others.

Activity 6 Reflect and critique own and others planning false false

Timing: 1 hour (online) during week 4

The objective of this course activity is: 

  • to reflect systematically on your proposed lesson plan
  • to critique at the least one other lesson plan
  • to adapt your own planning based on feedback from others.

You should be prepared to share your thoughts and reflections with others. 

Ensure you have read at least one other proposed plan before this session. 

Go to the course forum and the thread ‘Tutorial: Confirming plans’. Comment on at least one other lesson plan and review your own planning, in the light of the work of others and comments from the course facilitator. 

It may help to use the following questions as a guide for giving feedback.

  • What would the learners do? This is a descriptive activity that explains your action with the learners.
  • What would they learn and how do you know? This is an issue of assessment including observation, discussion, question and answer, testing, etc
  • Would it be worthwhile, i.e. did it succeed in meeting your targets? This question relates to your purposes and intended learning outcomes.
  • What do I intend to do next? This relates to your next steps for action. This is where you will try to do things to achieve an improvement and to make the work you do with learners more worthwhile in your terms.

These questions were adapted from Open University Curriculum in Action materials (1981).
