Teaching strategy - Modeling

Below is some random thoughts for our EDPS 6431 final project on Classification for Utah Museum of Natural History.

Just for my personal notes  

I’m not sure where to put these stuffs in this document. I’m thinking about Modeling.
(1) to teach students on classification. The learning module would firstly show examples on classification, (e.g. demonstrating the thinking process to observe an object with wheels and motor, it’s classified as vehicle.)
(2) let the learner draw their conclusions on how the thinking process goes through
(3) let the students develop their own system or concept map of classification
(4) provide practices on classifying different objects in different ways (the criterion needs to be discussed later).
Put it in a simple way, 1. Model the problem-solving thinking process of classification; 2. Practice and test their own classification system.
