Valuable domain learning
I think it is very important to do the objectives with the various levels. It in sures that you know the students get the topic. If you just started out at the top level they would probably not be able to follow. Sure there may be a few that get it but what about the rest of your students. In doing the levels you can be sure that the students are getting the topic and can follow along with recalling information. Being able to explain in their own words what they understand. Forming their own opinion about a topic these are skills they will need in the real world and if we don't prepare them then we are doing them a disservice.
Hi, Kristie - I especially like your statement about "the rest of your students", as that shows you are concerned about more than just the ones who seem to always "get it". We spend most of our time on those that don't get it right away, and good for you for keeping that in mind.
