6) Allow the class to reflect their learning in different ways and allow others to respond-( example:edmodo) 7) Ask the class how they can teach others and show others what they have learned- since this is a yearly project as the year goes on the class will learn different ways to display it on the computer and on different devices. 8) The students can now move on to a new project that may have been inspired by others and their questions or what others have taught us. ||
