I know what success looks like; it has been modeled for me. I know the criteria for my personal response.
I get to choose how I am going to gain information or knowledge or how I will demonstrate my learning. I have some control over my work.
Someone whose opinion I care about is going to see my work. I’ll be more attentive to my work because of an “elevated level of concern.”
I understand that real people need to know how to do this work. I see connections to my world or the world at large.
I am comfortable taking risks. It is OK to have a different answer or to be wrong on the way to being right.
I have the opportunity to interact with others, sharing and analyzing my ideas and theirs. My learning is different because of this process.
The work allows me to react and have my own thoughts. Consequently, there is more than one right answer.
The work grabs my attention because it is new and different. It may be different in procedure, product, perspective or place.
