As usual, a dynamic class. Did a group exercise to talk within our groups and share what we thought of each other… celebrate something they did looking back. Looking forward, what constructive advice could you give?

Restorative justice
Audio media about Restorative Justice
We listened to Luana Marotta, a fellow Lemann Fellow, present her dissertation’s rough draft. She is a PhD candidate in International Comparative Education admitted in 2012.
Her research looks at the causes of dropout rates in high schools and is finding that it has a lot to do with retention – in other words, the chances of a student dropping out after he repeats a grade are significant.
Assignment
Round 2! What is your new and improved Point of View?
Response
Our point of view has stayed the same – after these weeks of work, we really want to continue working with Achu and work on the same learning goals.
HMW support ACHU generate more words and even sentences?
We have three new prototypes that we are excited to see working with him this week:
For this idea, we are creating a character who will introduce themselves to Achu, and explain that they absolutely need Achu’s help to describe what is on the screen below because they cannot see. First, they will ask Achu to describe a picture, then we will ask Achu to describe a video.
This is meant to be a scaffolded exercise, and we maintain the idea of recording Achu as in previous prototypes and play that back to him.
