| Abstract: | - Dialogic intention -
For students to discuss contributions made by others to the Talkwall Class Feed, and to reach agreement by explaining, challenging and questioning each other - Subject and topic - Science (human growth) - Video Description - In a lesson about human growth, students were posed a series of three questions in Talkwall. Each question was set as a new task on a different screen. This video relates to the third task students were set, ‘how does growth vary between different children?’. Before this video starts, students were asked by the teacher to pin the two ‘best’ contributions from the Class Feed that clearly explained the answer to this question. Here, at the end of the task, the teacher displays the two choices made by one group. She then picks out one contribution posted to Talkwall, emphasising its quality in terms of the discussion that must have taken place prior to it being posted. - How does Talkwall support this? - The Class Feed enabled students to select the best answers to the question by accessing other group’s ideas. The teacher filtered the contributions by contributors to show ideas of particular interest. In discussing the chosen contributions, she clearly linked this to the dialogic intention of the task. |
