Here is a video introduction to the Big6:
The Big6 is an interesting and useful concept. I love the first stage. Too many times, I have found myself trying to solve a problem or complete a task without really defining that task for myself. I see students doing this as well. They either don't really know what they are trying to do, or they are simply trying to find out what they need to do to get an A.
I also love the final stage. As I've grown older and more experienced, I have found great value in reflection. This wasn't always the case. I guess as I've reflected on my life and my choices, I have realized just how important it is to reflect. Once a task has been completed or a problem has been solved, it is important to remember that learning is the goal. We have to ask ourselves questions: What can I do better? What went well, and what didn't? What did I learn about myself?
I had hoped to finish this project sooner than I did. I could have managed my time better, but I chose to prioritize a different way. Now I am up later than I want to be on a school night. I need to manage my time and my distractions more efficiently. I can do this, and hopefully I will do this.
