Other Notes
Overall, the essay writing had decent results, especially considering the barriers some of our student population face with such an
assessment. However, this success does not mean I don’t have to make adjustments to my teaching. I still have to make more
adjustments to better suit the demographics I am teaching, as they differ from what the student population was like in my previous year.
Lastly, the pre assessments and post assessments are attached in separate files. The pre-assessments were done on paper and had
