"Fires" Reflection

When I first started reading the textbook, I came into some conflict with the student responses. I thought that some of the answers to their responses would be impractical. However, as I learned more about classroom management and differentiation, I realized that you can be really flexible while also staying on task and practical. Through the use of technology and the allowance of student creativity and autonomy, students can feel like they're much more "in control" of their education. I can say that over the course of the semester, my overall attitude changed to a much more learner-based perspective.
