Session 8 40 minutes You start before you leave

The last session of the day is not a lecture — it is the first 40 minutes of your own certification work. Choose a topic from a class you actually teach and begin.

Your teaching challenge from Module 1:

"(fill in Module 1's baseline and it will appear here)"

Class: · Subject: · Topic:

If that challenge still matters to you, it is probably your best assignment topic.

What your assignment must include

  1. Intended class or grade band
  2. Subject and topic
  3. A clear learning objective
  4. At least two relevant sources — one a textbook or school-approved source
  5. One main classroom artifact
  6. Two or three meaningful prompts
  7. Evidence of refinement (before → after)
  8. Verification notes (your VERIFY review)
  9. A short reflection
The individual-work rule

"You may sit together, exchange ideas and help solve technical problems. However, each teacher must create and submit an individual notebook and individual evidence."

Using the same chapter as a colleague? Your work must differ in at least one meaningful way: learning objective, grade level, artifact, teaching approach, language approach, assessment design or learner-support strategy.

Closing words

"Your certificate will not show that you watched a NotebookLM demonstration. It will show that you built, reviewed and explained a classroom resource independently."
