Reflecting on your experience of understanding:
Meeting your course mates
Think about something that you understand well….
Evidence: How can you tell that you understand it?
Process: How did you come to understand it?
Find one person in the class whom you don’t know …
Compare and contrast your answers to these questions
List some common themes
List some differences
What is understanding? How is it fostered?

strong bridge between the course goals
and your interests

principles with practice
• Consider collaborating with a practicing
educator and one or more classmates
