What Are The Strengths of This Lesson?
•
•
•
•
•
Distinguish characteristics of phyla
Level of excitement was high passes!
Totally engaged
Learning curve was high
Felt much better about this topic on the
biology, AP biology, and marine science
exams
What Are the Weaknesses of This Lesson?
• Key needs to be re-organized. The 4 lists
of photos are not in order. Key should read
A1, A2, A3 A12. The same is true with
B1B12, C1C12, and D1D12.
• Some photos are difficult to see.
• Only one annelid is represented.
• Ctenophores and cnidarians-wellrepresented.
