Connects students' prior knowledge, life experiences, and interests in the instructional process.
I chose a lesson plan for an artifact because I think it shows strength in the criteria.
Artifact: 19th Century Reform Movements
Reflection: I think this particular lesson plan taps into all types of student backgrounds. Whether they come from upper, middle, or lower socio-economic households, all students can connect with someone or group that they believe is now, or has in the past been mistreated here in America. The choice to choose who or what they want to research gives them choices to meet their developmental needs. Students were able to choose any type of project that would meet the objectives of the lesson. They were also encouraged to reform their own world and make connection to their own lives and what they have the power to change.
