2. What worked?
The students already had a strong knowledge of DNA from the
previous unit. This was very helpful as it made the adjustment for coding
RNA much easier. It also worked really well to have the groups divided
ahead of time. In the past I have randomly passed out papers or counted
off to put students in groups. With the complexity of this assignment, Im
glad I grouped them off first because it allowed for me to mix the ability
levels of the groups so that they could work more efficiently and help one
another out. This also helped with classroom management as I could
preemptively keep certain students separated to keep them on task.
Having the whiteboards helped me to actually see what students
were able to understand the translation and coding and what students were
not. It was held up to me and I could assess to know what students to go to
and help as we started on the activity to clarify with them.
