Opening up

Getting kids going was sometimes challenging. Once they got started talking, orienting them was okay, but getting someone brave enough to start the discussion could be/ can be (especially virtually) hard.

Broad participation, Organic conversation, Referring to sources to make points

And then virtual constraints: Harder for students to jump into the conversation/know when to/feel confident doing so

- In the ES setting, we are not allowed to let students go into breakout rooms without an adult there.
- Sometimes students need sentence frames to get them started and/or focused on what to say

Getting students to talk to each other and staying on topic

2021-03-22 19:38:35 UTC

Encouraging everyone's voice being heard instead of allowing 1-3 students to dominate; getting students to engage with each other's ideas instead of just saying, "I agree with so-and-so" or repeating what someone else said
