Guide for Students

  • Find ideas that Boser is putting forward that confirm what you already know about learning. Leave a comment and an example for each.
  • Ask 3 questions of the document. They could be things you don’t understand, something you wonder, and something you want to be clarified.
  • Locate at least 3 unfamiliar words. In your annotation/comment include the definition and an example of how you might use the word in a sentence.

Finally, add to your “Story of Learning” for this week.
