Comments on Lesson Plan Critique

  • Great job Anna! I liked how you identified the need to first introduce word processing and all applicable software that children will use. This is often a prerequisite left out of lesson plans. I don't think your sources are correctly cited in APA. They should be double spaced without a skipped space in between. The second line (and third, etc.) of the source should be tabbed in as well. Let me know if you need an example. Excellent critique!
  • It's the second line that's supposed to be tabbed in and APA is typically double-spaced, although I'm not sure if it matters for this application. I attached an example of a citation.
  • I'm glad it gave you an idea!  Sometimes deciding how to layout your paper is half the work.
  • You can also get sources from the Internet.
  • Great job!  I like how you thought to integrate graphing into the lesson.  Do you think that they should do it in Excel or another program with a graphing component instead of just drawing it?  This way it will be a more accurate graph. 
  • Great job Lindsay! I like how your references other than the computer included a direct instruction approach with flashcards as well as a more hands-on approach by using magazines. You need to include at least 3 references to support your critique and cite them in APA.
  • You have to post it on the class discussion board too.
