Student Accountability
On Day 14, Dr. Fisher addresses student accountability. He revisits Novel Ideas Only and Four Corners and then introduces a new strategy.
This new strategy requires that all students in the group contribute to the conversation, adding a level of individual accountability as their peers take notes.
CLASSROOM TASK: CONVERSATION ROUNDTABLE
Introduce Conversation Roundtable to your students and model how to fold the paper. Select a piece of text, such as a Stretch Article, and have students read the article in their groups. Then have them take notes and have a conversation with their peers for which they are accountable.
Reflect on this new strategy and how it added accountability in their collaborative conversations.
This journal can be used to reflect on what you have learned as you develop strategies for engaging your students in collaborative conversations.
When students listen to each other, hear what their peers have to say, and then think about it, it adds a level of individual accountability.
