Another productive day at the IU thanks to my CIG! We worked together to get everyone on track for their inquiry. I focused on finished a few posts, analyzing the data from my survey, and finding information my ideas for my inquiry content. I’ve decided to use the information provided here: http://www.edutopia.org/living-legends-oral-history-projects-bring-core-subjects-to-life to kickstart my ideas. I’m going to decide between interviewing war veterans, people from different generations, and family members after discussing it with my students. The students will write interview questions, videotape the interview, and edit the videos into a TV show. This would cover most of the skills they expressed an interest in from the survey.

I would be interested to learn more about they survey and your analysis of it? What did you learn?

After reviewing their results with the students, they were anxious to start videos. After starting the preview work, they shut down, dee my other posts! We have moved on :(. I have learned that middle school students are too often influenced by a couple of students in the class. Now that I have been back in the classroom, I’m hoping to change that!
