Groups 6, 7, 8: (Henry, Maddie, Ifeoma, Cherese, Ashley, Rayanne, Bridget, Sukanya)
will be gathering the information they hear and representing it visually for the class, as well as building our professional vocabulary in the Bloop Glossary. Be thinking about what your strengths are, based on what you discussed as you shared over the last few days together. Are you good at stripping out details? Are you an artist? Are you good at seeing the big picture? We'll need you to work in your groups to "paint a picture" and stay focused so that we can take photos of your finished product at the end of class, and use what you entered in the Glossary to kick start our work as we move toward the Midterm next month.
7. Next Week...
Moodle Blog Post #4: Due Sunday by 11:55pm
- What are some of the ways that students experience schooling that may perpetuate a single story? And, what, if anything, should we do about that? In your response, consider how the experiences of undocumented students are similar or different from students who are Muslim. Develop a response that draws from the concepts in all five of the resources you have read/viewed this week. 500-750 words.
- Read and respond to AT LEAST ONE other Blooper on this week's Moodle post. In order to promote greater dialogue, choose to EITHER challenge a comment they made ["I'm not sure I agree that..."] OR extend their idea further ["Yes, and..."]
- THEN, pose one question to them. No word count is absolutely required in your response to them, but a minimum of 4-5 sentences is probably necessary when responding to another member.
- To be clear, you will EITHER Challenge & Pose a Question OR Extend and Pose a Question.
- Remember our goal is to "call people in" (to create dialogue) not "call people out," so think about how you want to articulate your response and promote brave spaces.
- In particular, try to write a question that doesn't sound like you already know the answer.
- Remember our conversation about how our words affect others and give some thought to how you want to articulate your response and promote brave spaces.
