1) Be sure that you completed the assigned readings.
 * Directions:**

2) Click on the //Effective Supervision Activity Context// link, located in the callout box to the right, that provides the context about the course (description of the course, outcomes of the course, description of the assignments). Then, click on the //Sample Before and After// link, also located in the callout box to the right. This document contains an activity that was developed by an instructor and then improved by a reviewer. Looking at the before and after versions, think about the changes that were made. Why do you think they were made? How did the activity improve?

3) Now, you will have the opportunity to be a reviewer. Click on the //Before and After// link, also located in the callout box to the right, and review the activity that needs improvement. 4) This week's Facilitator should set-up a space or page on the team wiki titled "Before and After- Activity Directions." The facilitator may consider also posting the activity directions on the wiki page so that the team has all of the information available in one place.

5) By **Saturday**, each team member should contribute to the improvement of the activity. Use discussion or commenting as needed on the Wiki to communicate your ideas and work as a team to revise the activity. The team should strive to have a finished activity that could be published to a course site. It should be complete and contain no spelling or grammatical errors. This week's Reporter should post the revised activity directions to the **Week 6: Before and After** whole group discussion forum in the ELC by starting a new thread. Title your thread with your team name.

6) Revisit the discussion forum through the remainder of the week to view the other teams’ revised directions. As you view each team's revised activity, think about: Contribute at least one comment to the activity directions for each of the other teams by **Monday**.
 * How did the team approach the revisions?
 * How does the activity differ from the revisions your team made? Is there a different instructional result?
 * To what extent are the directions clear?
 * What are the positive aspects of the activity? What did you learn from the team about developing activity directions?
