The intervention I designed offered us the opportunity to share and reflect on our experiences of learning to read – either our own experience or our recollection of supporting a child in this process. we all reviewed these written recollections and described what we had collectively learned about the process of reading through sharing these stories.
The lesson includes a discussion of authority and expertise in different contexts, with the objective to think critically about how we value information based on the source of the information and our particular information need.
What we sought in this class where the students would never meet in person was a way for them to get to know each other a bit more, by being able to read about the experiences and reflections of the other students in the class.
