Good music, good visuals and good instructions. Good work
I liked how you showed good examples of the different types of braids. Good idea incorporating written instruction as well as visual instruction. Good job!
Not really my area of expertise but I like how you gave the steps, gave examples of what it looks like and then showed how it was done. I think I could probably braid my hair now with a little practice... I just have to wait a year for it to grow out :)
I really liked how you showed all the different ways one could braid at the begining of the video. I also thought that it was good that before showing us how to do each braid you gave a written set of instructions so that it was easier to follow along with the actual demonstration. It was a good idea to show more than one way of doing a braid too. Good Job!
Christines video matched up well with the unit objectives as well as meeting the instructional needs as the video gave good instruction as to how to perform a regular braid as well as a french braid.
If I were the instructor I would probably have included the corn row braiding technique as it is a popular method of hair braiding.
I enjoyed the beautiful pictures of the braids as well as the upbeat music.
As a future Cosmetology instructor I would feel good about adopting this unit and video as part of the cirriculum.
Critique:
This video clip meets the instructional needs through Christine's thoroughly-explained steps through her video. She explains safety, identifies any potential difficulties, includes literacy, and gives additional tips. All of these meet her objectives and standards. If I were the instructor, another video clip I might use for this lesson would definitely be for sanitation and saftey procedures/rules. The best thing about this video clip was that she introduced the lesson with music and pictures of celebrities with braided hairstyles, because that will really grasp students' attention. I also liked how she put both visual literacy for explaining each step of the process, and followed it with auditory literacy. This technique will be very important in the classroom because it has been proven that using different senses at the same to time to learn concepts increases learning comprehension and skill. I thought that this lesson presented the time requirements very clearly and Christine gave detailed differentiated instruction, which was really great. Everything was presented and given in precise steps, and the lesson was well-prepared, so I don't have any suggestions for improvement. I would definitely adopt this unit plan and video as a teacher because this is something that can easily be applied to skills used in real life...students will be able to understand how to make braids and french braids upon the request of their clients, and they will also be able to understand how celebrities' or other persons' braided hairstyles have been created. The unit plan covered detailed easy-to-follow steps, safety, troubleshooting, tips, and even future resume planning, which are all considerably significant to the future of each student. Even though I already know how to braid, I enjoyed watching the video and learning Christine's personal techniques.
Nice job, I like how you gave descriptions of the braids before you did them and then proceeded to show students how it should be done very nice, showing examples of different braids was another good idea.
