How is a dialogue different than an argument? Write~pair~share
Session Overview • Our purpose today is to engage in productive dialogue and for you to leave with a specific framework for fostering dialogic assignments in your classroom in contrast to persuasive assignments. The format that we are sharing with you to do this is Pecha Kucha.
Session Agenda • Introduction • Pecha Kucha Demonstration • Lesson Demo • Work Time and Sharing
What is a pechakucha? It is a slide lecture that is exactly SIX MINUTES, 40 seconds long. It includes 20 images . . . that automatically advance every 20 seconds!
Variations • Lightning Talks • Record in Slides or PPT • Reading as an option • Stock Images • Pairs, Dialogue (Our Demonstration Today)
Language of the Cs: • critical thinking, • creative thinking, • collaboration, • communication • citizenship
from NCTE “In the dialogical classroom, students use writing to explore who they are becoming and how they relate to the larger culture around them. Dialogical writing • Combines academic and personal writing; • Allows writers to bring multiple voices to the work; • Involves thought, reflection, and engagement across time and space; and • Creates opportunities for substantive and ongoing meaning making.” -Bob Fecho, Ph.D., Columbia Teachers College
Freire, P. (1970). Pedagogy of the oppressed. New York: Bloomsbury. "Dialogue cannot exist…in the absence of a profound love for the world and for people. … Because love is an act of courage, not of fear, love is commitment to others. … And this commitment, because it is loving, is dialogical. … Only by abolishing the situation of oppression is it possible to restore the love which that situation made possible. If I do not love the world—if I do not love life—if I do not love other people—I cannot enter into dialogue." (p.88)
The Assignment • Dialogue as Critical Thinking • How can we discuss and think about issues with another in a transparent way? • How can we use images in the composition process to examine our beliefs? • The product that shows the answer to this question will be presented to the class in the form of a pechakucha. Be sure to check out www.pecha-kucha.org (Links to an external site.) for more information on your presentation. All images used in your presentation need to be either your original photography or creation or need to be cited.
We Try! • Our dialogue: What makes a good reader?
When have you had a productive dialogue? What made it productive? Turn and Talk
The LESSON Students will • Engage in critical thinking through dialogue and writing • Work with a partner to examine possible answers to a question from multiple perspectives beyond personal experience • Analyze audio recording of their dialogue and use related notes as the starting place for a well-designed dialogic presentation • Combine image and language to design and share creative and complex dialogic Pecha Kucha presentations
Opening/Inquiry: The Functions of Dialogue • A. Arrange students into group of 3 or 4, and provide (based on grade level and topical interests) one published mentor text per group. Invite groups to examine the text and to notice and discuss its features. After a short analysis of one text, have groups pass the texts and examine a new book. Pass enough times so that each group examines at least three varied texts. • Ask groups to determine what these texts have in common. • Invite groups to share with the class. If needed nudge toward the observation that each text includes one voice (or more) purposefully speaking/writing to another.
Modeling the Dialogic Process with Compelling Questions • What is a good friend? • How can you foster justice in your community? • What is freedom? • What makes a compelling protagonist?
You Try! • Recording is optional.
The Composition Process Recording dialogue first and then . . . Writing? Images? More talk?
Engaging Dialogue Partners with Visuals • Dialogue Analysis Sheet
The Assignment (Repeated) • Dialogue as Critical Thinking • How can we discuss and think about issues with another in a transparent way? • How can we use images in the composition process to examine our beliefs? • The product that shows the answer to this question will be presented to the class in the form of a pechakucha.
