Which ONE piece of advice would you give a teacher who wanted to create their own classroom material?

Which ONE piece of advice would you give a teacher who wanted to create their own classroom material?

Ask people for feedback. Other teachers, students, and your gramma!

[[Or, one could always say - cough cough - Take this neat iTDI course!]]

  1. Getting ‘good’ feedback is hard.
    Reason 1 - most teachers aren’t using the content they are reflecting on.
    Reason 2 - many teachers aren’t designers.
    Reason 3 - often we don’t know who to ask for specific help.
    These are three of my challenges.

  3. Rhett Burton All true! But even a fresh pair of eyes will sometimes do. Better, of course, to have someone of Barb's calibre to bother. :)

  4. Michael Free I'm always willing to give feedback if asked, but often find that fresh pair of eyes (especially eyes that aren't familiar with your work) can be rally helpful :)
