• More of the Principles of Teaching & Learning Charades!
• We will keep doing this!
• Getting permission for guest speakers to come into the classroom. 
• It is not as scary as you think. Work with your cooperating teacher to learn the process at your school. Be able to articulate the learning objectives/outcomes that will be complemented by the guest speaker.
• Does the group teaching technique affect the cognitive level of learning?
• Any teaching technique depending on how the instructor utilizes it and what expectation they have of the learner impacts cognitive level.
• What is the Teaching Method behind us doing a rubric when we hand in an assignment?
• This allows for assessment to become a part of instruction. It encourages and pushes reflective thought and review of an assignment with the expectations of that assignment instead of just 'turning it in'.
• How often should you balance individual and group learning?
• I am not sure what you mean by this question, but we should add as many tools as possible to our pedagogical tool belt so that we can achieve variability in the classroom
• Cooperative Learning in the Ag Workplace
• hmm, not sure how to respond to this one. You might need to tell me more. I know it is there!
