 55. VIEW-FINDER (Discussion, Writing)
 
Description: This is a post-reading strategy that deepens a student’s understanding of topics or issues by forcing the student to make judgments about them.
 
Application: Use the View-Finder protocol when eliciting students’ opinions.
 
Process:  Select a topic and determine the issue/problem to be tackled by students.
Create ten statements that will force students to think deeply about the topic or issue. Ask students to choose the following for each statement: SA-Strongly Agree, A-Agree, D-Disagree, and SD-Strongly Disagree. In the discussion that follows, direct students to use facts to back up their opinion. As a closure piece, tell students to write at least a paragraph using one of the statements with their opinion and facts to support it.
