I was really nervous the day we did the lesson. A lot of things were falling into place a lot later than I would've liked and things were not going very smooth.
I really do wonder if there was a way to not make this a collaborative lesson in the future, than maybe the means to make it so should be explored further. I just feel like making it collaborative brings up a lot issues that can hinder the lesson. There is figuring out when to put things together and the disagreements that happen between two people who teach differently. There is also this issue that I saw in a few other presentations where one partner can be out shined, not necessarily through any fault of their own. Some people are just more dominant in certain situations and you're not going to call out your partner during a presentation. And while I know why we had to do it this way and I learned a lot of things while collaborating with a partner, I feel like a more fair way of assessing someone as teacher and seeing how they teach a 55 minute lesson would be to see them do it on their own. This is just my personal opinion and I might be the only one who felt like this, but it's the way I felt through the entire process.
That being said, I enjoyed the lesson that my partner and I came up with and presented and even though there were issues in executing it, I feel like everyone still enjoyed themselves.
