The artefact stayed focused on important ideas of the topic/subject.

This artefact was focused on the ideas of the subject over a range of areas in the topic

Thisartefact stayed focused on the important ideas of the topic as it was only covering a small area topic

It got students to think about different points of view, different ways to solve a problem, or different solutions to problems.

Svenwas quiet good in this area as the idea of the talk show is to give different opinions and points of view across

Take a breath was notso good in this area is it was a generic program to learn about a function of the body

Good and bad example of artefact

Take a Breath

It used metacognition to demonstrate how to link what the students were learning with what they already know

therewas a lot of metacognition used in this artefact as there was large amounts of higher order thinking through out the activity

There was not a great deal of higherorder thinking going on due to the bases of the topic and its set out

It used questions to guide students in linking the lesson/unit learning to other topics/subjects

Thiswas effectively achieved as there where a few parts of the topic spoken about and then opinions given about the topic

Thisagain wasnt done so well as there was only a couple generic question involving you to summarise the topic and didnt really have a cross over into other area topics

It gave the students some say in what the lesson was about or how it unfolded in real time in the classroom

This was done by allowing the students to work throughthe activities in their own order allowing them to choose which way they wanted to go

This was also done in this artefactas the students again where able to choose which way they wanted to work through the activities and information

It made sure the lesson had a real world application or connection between what the students were learning and their future learning needs

This had a real world connection as the topic in which it covered covers areas in health which are used in every day life and also definitions which are also used regularand can influence present and future mind sets

This mainlyfocused on topic which was about therespitorysystem and what and how it works which can be used in real life to help make good decisions involving health and fitness.
