Difficult Standard

I think the standard I will struggle the most with will be Cohesion of Framework. I think I will struggle with this standard because being able to put all the pieces together of teaching and learning can be a challenge. The challenging part of proving my proficiency with this standard will be clearly articulating my knowledge. Sometimes I feel like I have all these great ideas in my head, but sometimes I feel I am not communicating them in the best way possible. However, I hope that this course will help put all my ideas, thoughts, and understandings regarding teaching and learning together in a clear and well articulated discussion. 

Course Thoughts and Questions

From reading the syllabus, this course will be very different from any course I have taken. Because it is different, I am a tiny apprehensive and nervous, but excited to see what I can learn and gain from this course. I think it's good that the focus is taken off of grades and more and what was actually learned. I can tell this course will be challenging, but that's a good thing because I like pushing myself to see what I can overcome and accomplish.

My three questions for this course are:

1. For any papers that we write, should we be using APA format?

2. How many people per group for group assignments?

3. When do we form groups? On our own time, in class, or will you assign groups?

And just one more...

4. Will we go over assignments more in detail in class? I would like the opportunity to ask some questions regarding the assignments.
