February 18 - Scholarly Habits

Student words and images

Scholarly Habits

Thanks for your ongoing work with the Scholarly Habits. It was fun and exciting to see the many different ways that TA's tackled the 'in your own words - activity #2'. It appeared from where I sat that students embraced the activity and increased understanding as a result.

Kate, Averill and Phil will be meeting in Averill's room during period 5 on Monday to continue work on the next few activities. We will keep you updated on the times that we will be working on these activities in the event that you would like to join us. Also, PAC students and Leadership Team have been providing us with feedback and there are lots of good things happening. You can expect an update and new scripts and flexibility (for activity 3-4) by Best Practice on March 11. The next TA scholarly Habit activity will be on March 12.
