A WORTHY WATCH
Janet Dutton Meet Me Mondays
Janet Dutton and I were talking last week about the article "The Forgotten Ones" that was in last weeks Monday Monday Mustang. We were talking about the importance of students having a voice and being seen.
Janet Dutton does a "Meet Me Monday" in her class. Every Monday, her students' interview 2 students, ask 3 questions and then record their info in a notebook they created. After she finishes the whole class, she has them do some reflective writing. EX: Who did you have the most in common with, who said something that surprised you and why…
The results are incredible. Students found out they had things in common with someone who never spoke in class, and they started talking to each other about the subject. She saw a difference in how they responded when others got up to speak – they were listening, and the shy ones weren’t so shy.
Due to technology, I feel we are seeing a decline in students able to hold a conversation. This is a video Janet shared with me. The ingredients of a great conversation are honesty, brevity, clarity and a healthy amount of listening. In this insightful talk, she shares 10 useful rules for having better conversations. "Go out, talk to people, listen to people," she says. "And, most importantly, be prepared to be amazed."
