Assignment:
Please record yourself (via audio only or a whole video) conferring with a student in your classroom.
When you have finished, you can decide if you'll share the video, the audio clip, or if you'll type a transcription of your conference.
Please then post your file or transcription to the discussion board and discuss the following prompts...
- Give a brief synopsis of your conference (age of student, reading level)
- Explain why you used the questions that you did in your conferring interview.
- Did you feel you were successful with note taking? Why or Why not? (What questions do you still have?)
- What sticky teaching point did you leave with your student and why?
