STEM Strategies Lesson Plan I not sure I will ever use this method to write future lesson plans. I did like how much this method requires you to evaluate the effectiveness of your lesson. The Five E's (Engagement, Exploration, Explanation, Elaboration, Evaluation) are a great way to prepare for a lesson. They are useful in organizing your thoughts during lesson set up. I think it's too much to use on a regular basis. I can’t imagine writing a lesson plan like this on a regularly. The plan I used for this assignment was one that I have used in the past. It is a successful lesson my students are definitely highly engaged and motivated. The use of technology is engaging and creative, the students relish the idea of choosing how they learn. The students seemed to be interested in the information and the creative application of their research. Objectives as a whole were met and mastered. The use of technology is an immediate success for most students as it gains their interest. When I make changes for next year I will provide a preselected list of volcanoes and earthquakes, there are too many for the students to choose from.
