My Seniors are getting ready to implement a complicated Complex Instruction cooperative learning rotation in their classrooms. Part of our preparation was to focus their panic in a KWL we did in class last week. I offer this podcast as one way of responding to their questions. It’s corny, but perhaps informative.<\/p>\n
These are most of the “What I want to know about what I’m about to do with CI” questions I responded to in the Cast:<\/p>\n
W \u2013 \u201cWhat I want to know about what I\u2019m about to do with CI.\u201d<\/p>\n
1.\tIf a group of students just aren\u2019t working well together, is it okay to switch them?<\/p>\n
2.\tFor resource card, can I use a non-fiction book?<\/p>\n
3.\tFor the pre\/post test should we measure knowledge of content or multiple abilities?<\/p>\n
4.\tWhat do you do with the activities\/projects that are finished each day? Do the kids present them during the closing meeting?<\/p>\n
5.\tCan I give a first grader two roes?<\/p>\n
6.\tWill four different activities on food from around the world be too narrow?<\/p>\n
7.\tHow do I describe the role of facilitator to very young students so they do not find it unfair that this person is a type of leader? Perhaps they won\u2019t have a problem with it.<\/p>\n
8.\tI want to know more about getting slower processors and lower academic students involved.<\/p>\n
9.\tHow can I encourage students to work as a team so everyone is as engaged as possible?<\/p>\n
10.\tAre there ever and groups of students that do not benefit from ci?<\/p>\n
11.\tHow often would it be beneficial to do CI? If it occurs once a week, do the benefits not become as strong because it is done so often?<\/p>\n
12.\tI want to know how to create an effective pre\/post test for ci.<\/p>\n
13.\tHow should I organize the groups? What roles?<\/p>\n
14.\tHow much time for sharing?<\/p>\n
15.\tHow is sharing structured?<\/p>\n
16.\tHow much preparation with roles and norms? How far in advance?<\/p>\n
17.\tHow do I incorporate and deal with team teaching?<\/p>\n
18.\tHow do I fix \/ prevent behavioral problems curing CI stations?<\/p>\n
19.\tMany students don\u2019t get along, groups are made as friendly as possible yet issues will arise. Pre\/post tests?<\/p>\n
