Unit 3 Posting

This unit's concept was about learning and how we as educators could be sure that learning took place.  I think that evaluation and assessment of the instructor and the learning material help to identify whether learning was successful.  Asking the students to write or to demonstrate how they would implement the taught material into their life or work could really be beneficial in know if learning took place.  An evaluation at the end of the class would also help in determining how much of the learning took place.  During my teaching assignment for this course, I remember the students asked alot of questions and really participated and got involved.  I took this as a positive, but sometimes that by itself cannot tell whether learning really took place.  Assessing the material and the instructor are good tools to use in determining this.
