Great post Bradey! I watched the video you picked and it was a good choice for this subject. I agree with you that the video could use more animations or graphics for better understanding but overall very informative. I like that you kept the content and activity short to follow the video as to not make it a large time sink for a introduction style video. Having multiple options for online and in-person discussion may spark different conversations and allows students to have multiple interactions with the material.
Awesome post Madison! As someone who doesn’t know much about AI language models you really broke it down nicely to understand it and your learning approach. I like your idea of doing case studies, I think they definitely provide a deeper understanding and are a chance to create connections to the subject. Giving students a chance to familiarize themselves with the subject before being asked to analyze it is a great solutions to reduce the barrier of not feeling comfortable commenting on something you don’t know much about.
Really enjoyed your post Andrew! You captured what experiential learning is and how it relates to the project topic. I like your use of examples that highlights the difference between learning something from a book and what that actually translates to in the working world. I agree with you that there needs to be a good balance of learning the facts of the materials and general characteristics and rolling up your sleeves to do some testing in a lab or through simulation. Hands on learning really does provide a different type of experience and allow for more growth and interaction with the teaching materials.
Sounds like you have had a great experience in the field Bradey! Really interesting how you were able to reflect on your work experience and identify what teaching approaches. Seems like being exposed to each of the three: behaviourism, cognitivism and constructivism has provided a well rounded exposure. Which I would agree that this is quite important for figuring out your own learning style and being able to build different skill to help in career. Working and going to school offers a unique perspective by being able to apply what you have learned to your work and helps gain insight to how the industry runs.
