Peer Evaluation

The goal statement was review by a peer who has experience in the field of health education studies.  She has been teaching both adults and children for the past few years.  As for education, my peer has a graduate degree in health education.  My peer was able to follow the first level task analysis of my lesson.  My peer recommended that a worksheet be provided for the students to help guide them in their analysis of the inappropriate messages, since they may have been influenced to think otherwise about these messages.  Also, the influence of peers on this subject may make some students ignore the obvious slant of some messages.
