Synthesis/Discussion

After reading the module information (chapters, articles, videos) think about how these sources of information are related. Then, submit a synthesis (merging of the big idea(s)) to the discussion board. This should help you comprehend the information as well as see the overall ‘big picture’ presented in the module. Be careful not to summarize each source, instead merge the information and ideas into a central theme. Think about how this information will be useful to you as a classroom teacher. Please end your post with a question to the class to prompt discussion.
