Hi Marie, I like the way you structured your final blog post into a table with your before and after course one and now your reflections after course two. Your analogy comparing pbl to riding a running horse had me laughing and shaking my head in agreement. So true! We have to facilitate student work that is on-going and challenging so that requires constant substantive feedback and you are right, we have to enjoy the ride as well. You said it best in your reflection by acknowledging that students can do challenging work when they are appropriately supported. You also discussed the issue that a limited time presents. True, but worth the communication and the compromise in order to get sincere stakeholder feedback. I absolutely loved the weebly you set up to crowd source feedback! I'm giving mine now! Like you, I can't wait for next semester!
