At the end of the semester you will determine your grade for ECE 209 based on your self-assessment of what you have learned. In preparation for your self-assessment, answer the questions below; you will answer these questions at the end of each module so you have a record of what you have learned over the semester. You can answer the questions here on Open Lab or create a journal on Blackboard (which would be private).
What did you learn in this module?
Information/ knowledge
Skills
Insights (connections you made or “ah-ha’s” you had about the material)
How will the material from this module better prepare you to work with infants?
