As my internships draws to a close, it is hard to quantify what I have learned here.
The most interesting moment had to be learning how to cut aluminum tubing with a Kaltenbach saw. I had to go through safety training, observe the process, cut with help, and then cut on my own. I guess I was on the receiving end of scaffolding.
My biggest challenge was figuring out what product I wanted to create. Eventually, the product found me. I will organize a FIRST Lego League team for my school.
My biggest take away is to set up my classroom according to the 5S System (Sort, Set in Order, Shine, Standardize, Sustain). This will make my room a safer place to work, minimize clutter which reduces time looking for items, and in turn, increases time for instruction.
