I have always joked that I “steal” my best ideas from other teachers. Many parts of this chapter made me think about how I have come across a project or idea created by someone else and it had so many steps, layers, and the timeline seemed to take a big part of instruction only to hit a few learning outcomes.
Chapter 4 was a good reminder for me to be a critical thinker and take the time to examine what the project is asking of students. Looking at student work is powerful and I completely agree with the authors that this should be a standard to look at to gauge projects for the depth and quality.
The list of pitfalls are a good list to keep handy when searching all the many projects available.
