EDUC 111 Learning Styles
Lesson Plan Revision
INTRODUCTION
During Winterim 2016 I took a course titled Newer Views of Learning. This course was focused on learning styles and new views in the education realm. For our final project, we were asked to select five lesson plans and revise them to reflect a contemporary educational view or theory. The following are my five lesson plan revisions.

REFLECTION
These five revised lesson plans took some time to figure out! I found out that several of my lessons were lacking an intrapersonal aspect, which can be easily added in. I feel that my strongest lesson plan was my project based learning lesson, as the kids really enjoyed creating Native American artifacts. Also, for future lessons I would like to incorporate more hands-on activities, in addition to technology.
