Briefly‌‌describe‌‌the‌‌artifact‌‌and‌‌the‌‌context‌‌in‌‌which‌‌it‌‌was‌‌created.‌‌What‌‌was‌‌your‌‌individual‌‌ 
contribution(s)?‌‌   ‌
The‌‌field‌‌experience‌‌I‌‌completed‌‌was‌‌the‌‌completion‌‌of‌‌my‌‌engaged‌‌learning‌‌project.‌‌ 

This‌‌experience‌‌required‌‌me‌‌to‌‌research‌‌ideas,‌‌create‌‌a‌‌plan‌‌that‌‌included‌‌standards‌‌and‌‌tasks,‌‌ 

and‌‌research‌‌possible‌‌products‌‌for‌‌students‌‌to‌‌develop.‌‌I‌‌also‌‌found‌‌websites‌‌to‌‌provide‌‌for‌‌ 

students‌‌to‌‌use‌‌as‌‌resources.‌‌This‌‌experience‌‌required‌‌me‌‌to‌‌write‌‌an‌‌original‌‌lesson‌‌plan‌‌and‌‌ 

revise‌‌the‌‌plan‌‌to‌‌better‌‌meet‌‌the‌‌needs‌‌of‌‌all‌‌students‌‌after‌‌receiving‌‌peer‌‌feedback.‌‌I‌‌also‌‌used‌‌ 

feedback‌‌from‌‌peers‌‌to‌‌make‌‌edits‌‌and‌‌develop‌‌a‌‌stronger‌‌rubric.‌‌Through‌‌this‌‌process,‌‌I‌‌was‌‌ 

also‌‌able‌‌to‌‌gain‌‌experience‌‌coaching‌‌peers‌‌on‌‌their‌‌engaged‌‌learning‌‌project‌‌ideas‌‌and‌‌drafts‌‌ 

and‌‌collaborate‌‌with‌‌them‌‌to‌‌make‌‌improvements.‌  ‌

 ‌
Explain‌‌how‌‌this‌‌artifact‌‌demonstrates‌‌mastery‌‌of‌‌the‌‌standard/element‌‌under‌‌which‌‌it‌‌is‌‌placed.‌‌   ‌
This‌fi
‌ eld‌‌experience‌‌‌allowed‌‌me‌‌to‌‌gain‌‌experience‌‌in‌s‌ ynthesizing‌‌and‌‌applying‌‌‌the‌‌ 

content‌‌and‌‌professional‌‌knowledge,‌‌skills,‌‌and‌‌dispositions‌‌identified‌‌in‌‌several‌‌PSC‌‌and‌‌ISTE‌‌ 

standards.‌‌Using‌‌the‌‌knowledge‌‌I‌‌gained‌‌throughout‌‌the‌‌course,‌‌I‌‌completed‌‌the‌‌project‌‌and‌‌ 

provided‌‌my‌‌students‌‌with‌‌safe‌‌internet‌‌tools‌‌and‌‌resources‌‌to‌‌help‌‌them‌‌complete‌‌their‌‌ 

projects.‌‌Understanding‌‌how‌‌to‌‌use‌‌indicators‌‌of‌‌engaged‌‌learning‌‌was‌‌beneficial‌‌as‌‌I‌‌created‌‌a ‌‌

learning‌‌experience‌‌for‌‌my‌‌students‌‌that‌‌was‌‌authentic,‌‌meaningful,‌‌and‌‌culturally‌‌responsive.‌‌ 

Through‌‌this‌‌field‌‌experience,‌‌I‌‌was‌‌also‌‌able‌‌to‌‌provide‌‌my‌‌students‌‌with‌‌a‌‌real-world‌‌ 

experience‌‌that‌‌kept‌‌them‌‌interested‌‌and‌‌engaged.‌  ‌

 ‌
What‌‌did‌‌you‌‌learn‌‌from‌‌completing‌‌this‌‌artifact?‌‌What‌‌would‌‌you‌‌do‌‌differently‌‌to‌‌improve‌‌the‌‌ 
quality‌‌of‌‌the‌‌artifact‌‌or‌‌the‌‌process‌‌involved‌‌in‌‌creating‌‌the‌‌artifact?‌‌(Not‌‌changing‌‌anything‌‌is‌n
‌ ot‌‌ 
an‌‌acceptable‌‌response.)‌  ‌
Completing‌‌this‌‌field‌‌experience‌‌challenged‌‌me‌‌to‌‌use‌‌new‌‌skills,‌‌knowledge,‌‌and‌‌dispositions‌‌to‌‌ 

develop‌‌a‌‌learning‌‌experience‌‌for‌‌my‌‌students‌‌that‌‌allowed‌‌them‌‌to‌‌use‌‌their‌‌content‌‌knowledge‌‌to‌‌

make‌‌connections‌‌to‌‌the‌‌real-world,‌‌collaborate‌‌with‌‌others,‌‌and‌‌develop‌‌a‌‌product.‌‌To‌‌improve‌‌this‌‌ 

experience,‌‌I‌‌would‌‌collaborate‌‌with‌‌my‌‌administrator‌‌and‌‌share‌‌the‌‌engaged‌‌learning‌‌project‌‌idea‌‌ 

with‌‌teachers‌‌in‌‌my‌‌school.‌  ‌

 ‌
How‌‌did‌‌the‌‌work‌‌that‌‌went‌‌into‌‌creating‌‌this‌‌artifact‌‌impact‌‌school‌‌improvement,‌‌faculty‌‌ 
development,‌‌or‌‌student‌‌learning?‌‌How‌‌can‌‌this‌‌impact‌‌be‌‌assessed?‌  ‌
The‌‌work‌‌that‌‌went‌‌into‌‌completing‌‌this‌‌field‌‌experience‌‌impacted‌‌student‌‌learning‌‌ 

because‌‌it‌‌provided‌‌me‌‌the‌‌opportunity‌‌to‌‌develop‌‌a‌‌learning‌‌opportunity‌‌for‌‌students‌‌that‌‌was‌‌ 

unlike‌‌any‌‌assignment‌‌they‌‌had‌‌completed.‌‌This‌‌project‌‌allowed‌‌students‌‌to‌‌use‌‌technology‌‌to‌‌ 

enhance‌‌their‌‌learning,‌‌collaborate‌‌with‌‌in‌‌field‌‌experts,‌‌and‌‌use‌‌their‌‌beliefs‌‌and‌‌opinions‌‌to‌‌ 

develop‌‌a‌‌product.‌‌The‌‌learning‌‌from‌‌this‌‌field‌‌experience‌‌can‌‌be‌‌assessed‌‌through‌‌the‌‌products‌‌ 

students‌‌were‌‌able‌‌to‌‌create‌‌after‌‌completing‌‌the‌‌project.‌  ‌
