 =Colonial Period Group Reflection=

As a group, we discussed how best to accomplish the task of designing and compiling the information for our Wiki page on education during the colonial period in America. After reading the specific instructions for what should be included on our page, we divided the assignment with Nicole and Patti working jointly to focus on a description of the classroom, curriculum, and what the learner would have experienced, and John and Jim focusing on important dates, historical events, and thinkers of the time. Both groups collected video clips and pictures to enhance the page.

After our presentation, we read and discussed the comments made by fellow students and Dr. Ceglie. Nicole then modified the page by adding a Venn diagram activity. We also added some google books as primary resources.

We found that dividing the work into pairs of two located at the same workplace enabled our group to complete the page more efficiently. Our entire group had time to meet during face to face classes, and we found, even with limited time, we were able to create an interesting, informative page.
