Possible Discussion Protocol
1. Plan a core question for discussion.
2. Share your experience (2 or 3 minutes). If feasible, share a short audio or video clip to anchor the discussion (~30 - 40 seconds).
3. Respond to colleagues questions.
4. Listen while colleagues discuss the issue.
5. Summarize how you are thinking now. What are the implications?
Learn with Colleagues: Share classroom evidence, successes, and challenges
What did you do differently to help students to reason more deeply? How did you encourage students to use evidence? Were you able to gently challenge or put forward counterexamples that caused students to rethink their ideas? How did this work?
Prepare for a 5-minutes discussion of your experience. (There may or may not be time for everyone to share experiences in
every study group, but preparing to discuss your own experience will contribute to discussion of others’ experiences.)
