During the month of November, the
focus was on the syllabus evaluation and the project demonstration. It is wonderful to see the light at the end
of the tunnel and know that our projects are coming to completion. I feel a great sense of accomplishment having
completed all the steps in this process.
It has certainly been an interesting experience.

October Monthly Summary:
During October, the big course
projects were the program of practice paper and the syllabus design. Working on the program of practice paper, I
found that I had to put in a lot more hours completing the observations/information
gathering section than I realized. I set
it up so that I could observe a section of both the classes I used in the
paper, which was a clinical class in a medical assistant program and an
advanced income tax class.

September Monthly Summary
September Monthly Summary:
September has been a busy month and I know we are all happy
that the literature review papers are complete!
For my literature review, I studied the popular literature and theories
available dealing with the environment and context in learning. I struggled with this paper because the
subject matter is so very broad. I
completed an in depth review of the physical environment, knowledge environment,
political environment, situated cognition, and the cultural environment and how
each of these contexts effect learning.
That is a lot of information to digest!
In the end, my paper turned out to be too general due to the overall
amount of information I covered. After
reviewing my work and communicating with Dr. Chang, I have decided to scale
back and focus on the physical environment and situated cognition, or the real
life environment rather than all the contexts that affect learning.
