Study Notes
Come Prepared for a Discussion
- Participation is key in a discussion, and it requires preparation beforehand.
- Prepare by reading the text, bookmarking important parts, and journaling to warm up for discussion.
Speak Up and Participate
- Express yourself in a group by sharing at least three ideas or thoughts.
- Ideas can come from your reading journal, such as asking a question, relating the text to another text, or explaining why the text makes you feel a certain way.
- Raise your hand or wait for a pause in the conversation to share your thoughts.
Use Evidence to Support Your Ideas
- Use information from the text to back up your ideas, making them more credible.
- Refer to evidence from the text, such as quotes or facts, to support your point of view.
- This helps others understand and agree with your perspective.
Actively Listen to Others
- Participation in a discussion involves not only expressing your ideas but also listening and responding to others.
- Avoid thinking too much about what you want to say and forget to listen to others.
- Respond to others' comments and engage in a discussion like a game of volleyball, bouncing ideas back and forth.
Respect Other People in a Discussion
- Respect other people's views and opinions, even if you disagree.
- Show respect by:
- Not speaking when someone else is speaking.
- Trying to understand other people's points of view.
- Avoiding insults or negative comments.
- Asking for evidence to support others' ideas.
- Agreeing with or providing additional support for others' ideas.
