AEE 412 Lab Recap

During the course of this semester, I have certainly had my ups and downs with Lab; however, the teaching lab component was definitely helpful in understanding my teaching style.

Have I grown as a professional?

I have learned a lot throughout the semester from different teaching methods and styles to classroom management techniques to anything in between.

Personally, I feel that I have improved in the Labs, although a few of them have knocked me down as I struggled in searching for my own methods of instruction. Yet, these labs do provide those who want to eventually be agricultural educators with very beneficial growth as it provides a mock session of what really goes on in the classroom.

What can make lab better?

Enforcing roleplaying would have definitely helped me out more. My lab did not grasp roleplaying as a student, and it in turn did not prepare me well enough as I completed my LifeKnowledge and Microteaching lessons.

Below is my highlight video created showing one of Rosenshine and Furst Characteristice of Teaching Efeectiveness which I feel that I did a good job of completing. Feel free to check it out.
