After viewing other projects and completing my own, a look into the Career Builders Commercial, I came to an interesting conclusion from a teaching standpoint. These projects had such a wide range of approaches. As my group was doing our project, I did not think there was much variation on what was required from the project, but rather how a group chose to present their findings. After viewing some others, I realize just how much was open to interpratation from the assignment. I love being surprised at how different people read an assignment. The possibilities are endless. As a future teacher, this open-endedness is something I want studnets to have, that is, the ability to have options and variations in their work. Not every student learns the same, and not every student demonstrates what they have learned in the same way. It is important to me to make sure that students feel confident with what they turn in. An assignment such as this would feed directly to that, and is still requiring the same things from every student (reading, research, writing, critical thinking, and technology).
