Assessments Offered
In the "Design Your Own Dream Room!" course, I highly encourage students to showcase their creativity and progress by uploading photos of their weekly projects. Sharing projects with the class is OPTIONAL. Students may share their photos with me individually for feedback. This feedback process serves multiple valuable purposes:

Personal Growth: Sharing their work allows students to reflect on their own progress, accomplishments, and areas for improvement. It fosters self-awareness and boosts confidence as they witness their skills evolving throughout the course.

Peer Interaction: By viewing and providing feedback on each other's projects, students engage in a supportive and collaborative learning environment. They can learn from each other's design choices and inspire each other with unique ideas.

Constructive Critique: Feedback from peers and the instructor offers constructive criticism, helping students refine their designs and explore alternative approaches. This exchange of perspectives enhances critical thinking and problem-solving skills.

Motivation: Recognizing their efforts and receiving positive feedback can motivate students to keep pushing their creative boundaries, leading to greater enthusiasm for the course.

Building Community: Sharing photos of their work cultivates a sense of community among students, fostering connections and camaraderie in the virtual classroom.
