Taking time to reflect helps students feel good about their accomplishments, but more importantly, reflection can be the thing that makes learning really stick. Setting aside time for reflection helps students reveal things they might not otherwise think about: what they learned, their growth as learners, and what they want to learn in projects ahead
2.) Discussion on the reason students need to reflect and elaborate.
As students complete more and more projects, they will be able to handle more tasks as they go. As a teacher you need to ask your students to reflect and elaborate. Ask: What does this get you wondering about next? What do you want to learn now, and how do you want to go about it?
3.) Discussion on how schools build tradition and identity.
Many schools' identities are tied to their traditions. Once you have established a tradition of excellence, students will feel it's a privilege to honor the tradition with their hard work. In order to build a tradition, you have to get the community involved so that the school can form an identity.
4.) Discussion on the importance celebrating a project.
Anyway that you can celebrate the experience of learning by a student, do it. Students worked really hard on their projects and it's important to show the students how good of a job they did and how much you appreciate their hard work.
5.) Discussion on how concepts in this chapter relate to your topic/project.
