Quality of Explanation of the Subject Matter: Strong (2)
This lesson does a good job of showing how language changes through different aspects of our identity, but it does not really teach the students how to properly fix the issues they find.

Utility of Materials Designed to Support Teaching: Very Weak (0)
The "Dear Abby" link does not work, so I was not able to see what the lesson was based on.
on Apr 30, 09:19pm Evaluation
Quality of Assessments: Limited (1)
There is no direct assessment listed. The only mention of assessment is a whole-class discussion, which does not allow the educator to gauge the understanding of students who do not speak up. I would recommend including a part where the students write down their thoughts and any questions they have to turn in.
on Apr 30, 09:19pm Evaluation
Quality of Technological Interactivity: Strong (2)
The students have to use the Internet to analyze the grammar usage of others, which may help them see the "pet peeves" being used more broadly. However, this does not provide an individualized learning experience.
on Apr 30, 09:19pm Evaluation
Quality of Instructional and Practice Exercises: Strong (2)
The practice exercises encourage the students to pay attention to grammar when consuming media, but there are not any exercises related to analyzing grammar usage except what is done as a class discussion.

Opportunities for Deeper Learning: Superior (3)
This lesson does a great job at encouraging the students to think critically, reason abstractly, and communicate effectively by having them discuss with each other their own biases that can be identified through the way they judge grammar usage.
