I got all these ideas from other educators on social media.  In this episode, I take time to reflect on these three projects.  I talk specifically about:

• how I had students create a TikTok as their final math summative grade
• my rubric for the TikTok project
• reflections on what I would do differently with the TikTok project if I did it again
• how I introduced the Rube Goldberg project for my robotics class
• how I incorporated Minecraft in the planning process for their Rube Goldberg project
• how we utilized our Zoom class time during the week they were working on the Rube Goldberg machine
• how I structured the financial literacy project where students sold items on eBay
• how one student made over $300 when he did the eBay project
• a bonus 'virtual yearbook' project I did with my advisory students
