Keep a reflective journal

Complete a teaching project

You might choose, for example, to revise your syllabus or lesson plans for a unit. Your project should result in some kind of tangible product, plus a one- or two-page reflection by you on the strengths and weaknesses of this project. You should be prepared to share something about your project at the closing event for the term.
