Making design decisions

I teach in a cosmetology school. My students are faced daily in making design decisions about the end result. They need to end up with a required result. They usually have discussions with peers, have reference materials, notes from lectures and demos, and them present to me, the solutions to get to the end result. This is then discussed and any other considerations are reviewed. Since we are a career school, we are sharing with them the reality of working in the cosmetology profession, and how to get results.

Hi Stacy,
Yes, I love active learning as it applies to the real world. Students love when learning is made applicable to the real world.

Active learning has been in my classroom for years, it has been a
very good way of getting students involved. It makes them enjoy being in my class.
I love that the activities are "real world projects" so they are learning a real life (Career) lesson.

Hi Gary,
Bottom line is what we want, and we will take the necessary steps to get our students their. I love how you have your students utilize various resources to get to their end result.
