1|:<\/span> Daily Ticket-Outs\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

With attending class, students were graded each day by their responses that were given from a daily prompt at the end of class. Although these open-ended responses were out of 1 point, points add up and could ultimately make a difference between a letter grade! I value that attending class and clarifying assignments with the professor is important <\/span>as some students received either a zero for no response or a .5 for half answers (if the prompt had multiple questions).<\/p>\n

However, I learned that everyone’s perspectives are different and with open-ended questions there are no wrong answers as long as the prompts are answered in full. The daily ticket-outs were very interesting to read as you can see how different people lives, morals, and experiences are.\u00a0<\/p>\n

2|: Submitted Written Papers\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>Term-Paper-Rubric<\/a><\/p>\n

I graded the end of term papers which were based off of Erikson’s theory. The paper had to identify which part of Erikson’s theory they currently fitted into and explain how they would overcome that stage in their life. Overall the class did pretty well as they all followed the guidelines that were identified in the rubric! Without attending class<\/span>, it would have ultimately been hard to incorporate things discussed in class about Erikson’s theory which would have easily fulfilled the subject knowledge part in the rubric.<\/p>\n

As I read the student’s papers it was interesting to see how they analyzed themselves and found resolutions to their situations. I felt like this paper was a great way to allow students to be able to grow as a student and identify their strengths and weaknesses. I learned that growth is all about identifying these issues and overcoming them or finding positive solutions.<\/p>\n

3|: Created Exam Questions<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

As a UTA, the most pleasurable experience was being able to create exam questions for the following end-of-term exam and possible questions for future exams. In creating these questions I was looking to create a few questions that would create deeper thought and understanding while mixing in a few of easily answered questions that covered general overview of this course. While creating these questions I found myself having to review and study over material to get a broader view of the course to incorporate in for the exam. I improved my skills of reading and skimming through material. I also expressed skills of patience, using common knowledge, and researching while forming multiple choice exam questions.<\/p>\n

In preparation for the exam questions, I started this process on the first day of class by jotting down key points<\/span> and potential exam questions. Before submitting questions I had Dr. Meca review them as I may have made errors. Having a professor review over submitted work just solidifies that your on the right track<\/span> to better be prepared for the ending results. Moreover, I also reviewed them to perfect-it before exam time.\u00a0<\/p>\n
