This is your chance to teach part of the reading! Each week we’ll ask a group of four students to work together to explain a complex reading to the rest of the class. However, I’ve broken up the responsibilities of this group presentation so that everyone is clear about their contribution. I’ll assign you a question to answer based on the week’s reading. The questions can be difficult, but you’re not being judged on your exact answer. You’re being judged on your willingness to dive in, and help your classmates understand the text. I’m looking for effort.
Before it’s your day to facilitate
- Complete the extra reading
- Write ~300 words on your topic and your responsibility
- Combine your document with your group (so that there is one document to share with the class)
Your notes are due in eLearning before class. I cannot accept makeup grades for these as the point is to present to your classmates. If you need to switch your time, please work with another student to switch.
When it’s your day to facilitate:
- Come ready to class to talk about your part of the reading for about five minutes. Your goal is to help your peers understand the reading.
- Be prepared to have a panel discussion with your group
- You do NOT need to do a presentation. Your notes are enough.
- At the end of the facilitation, I’ll ask all the facilitators for that day to add their notes to a google doc that we can share with the class. This way, every class will have its own set of Cliff’s Notes that you can use when putting together your Midterm & Final Case Studies.
Turn into eLearning
- Your three paragraphs (300 words) on a Google Doc
- Update the Google Sheet with links to your document and the team document
