Chapter 2_Universe of Possibility and a world of measurements. What is the correct method for today's learners?
Current measurements in education are conducted through paper and pencil tests, reports, and worksheets. These current methods of measurement leave no room for exploration and survival thoughts and engagement.
When I think of ways to have measurement and comprehension I think of my classroom measurement methods. In the class I teach students interact with technology, reading, media, software applications, and hands on activities. Each area is evaluated, however it is the software piece that enables the students the ability to visualize and experience portion of the module. These possibilities give the student a real world feel. The chance to experience the role.

I had the same feelings from Chapter 2! I also try to use hands on activities whenever I can. I can be kinda hard to find the right kind of activity for my keyboarding classes, but for my Computer in Business classes there are so many awesome simulations that you can find online. It really helps the students to think more abstractly about actual situations when we are able to let them experience it.
