Lesson 3 learning reflection- 13 categories of eligibility under IDEA

• A reflection of your process to learn it, and what you would change to learn more/better,

I really liked when we had the activity where we practiced picking what the 13 categories of eligibility were under IDEA. I learn really well through visual representations and through trial and error so it helped me a lot to be able to really focus and try to decide what would be in the category. I would've liked to write down all the choices and practice the activity at home.

• What experience or resource helped you learn the most,

The experience that helped me learn the most was when I had to do the matching of the 13 categories as well as the High and Low incidences. Something else that really helped me learn was doing the simulation for the learning disability. It made me realize that it really would be so difficult for an individual.

• How well prepared are you for applying what you learned in the future,

I think I could have been more prepared for learning the material by memorizing what was covered by the IDEA as well as the categories. I think that as far as applying what I learned in the future I think I understand the general idea behind the "due process" but would want to study more on the specifics.

• How well did your peers learn and what did you do to help them learn more.

It seemed that my peers did very well in learning the material. We worked as a group and when there was a category that I felt fell under the IDEA I made sure to explain my reasoning to the group.
