13. WHITE BOARD MEETING (Feedback, Discussion, Writing)
Description: This academic approach provides students fuel on a given topic, enabling them to formulate and communicate individual ideas and share these ideas with others.
Application: This procedure is useful for activities like note check, vocabulary review, quiz review, concept review, lecture check, outline, discussion questions, partner reading, topic development, agree/disagree, brainstorming, simulations, current events, summarization, and forming an opinion.
Process: Present a discussion topic or problem to solve. Direct students to work individually and allow them time for thinking. Assign partners and tell them to compare works and reach a consensus answer. Allow students time to put their answer on the white board. Instruct pairs to move to a circle formation, prompt the students to show the whiteboard to all, having the whiteboard constantly visible during discussion. Begin discussion with a broad question such as does anyone notice something different in the responses? Enrich the discussion with verbal prompts such as explain, contrast, or extend or pose questions such as does anyone agree with that; do you have any questions for another pair; how do you know. Remind students of basic rules: no talking while others are speaking and no erasing during the White Board Meeting.
