I enjoyed doing this Great Task assignment mainly because it was a topic that I was extremely interested in: Print Ads and the messages that they share with the world. I have to admit that it took a while to choose a specific ad because there was a massive amount of ads and campaigns that I found to be offensive. I had fun playing around with the one that I chose because there was a lot of different ways to approach the ad and send out MY message to the world.
I thought that this task was great because it showed the importance of choosing something engaging to do in the classroom. If I wasn't interested in the media world, I know that the end result of my project wouldn't have been the same and it definitely wouldn't have showed a deep understanding of the task.
If i was a teacher and assigned this great task to my group of students I think that it would be interesting to see all of the different outcomes and ideas of my students.
I overall thought that the feedback from our peers was for the most part extremely positive. However, I think that I would add in more guidelines to the assignment. After some time has past since i completed the Great Task, I now see that there should be more guidance when it comes to expectations for the assignment. My directions are too broad. I think that more guidance and strict guidelines shows discipline and will show me as a teacher who is really listening to instructions.
