3. Deepening Student Learning during Instruction a. Explain how you elicited student thinking through questions or materials and facilitated responses that supported students abilities to construct meaning from and interpret complex text.
I elicited student thinking through the use of examples to show students how to correctly apply this material to their essays. I provided examples of how to properly format quotes into an essay, and also provided examples of language that could be used to transition quotes into their essays. I asked students to come up with alternative examples for words that are typically used when inserting quotes, such as she said/he said. Also, toward the end of the lecture portion, I modeled evidence and read through examples of how to restructure their outlines into paragraphs. By modeling the procedure, students were more engaged and confident in working on the in-class assignment. b. Explain how you supported students in using textual (or, if a film, visual or dialogue) references to check or justify their constructions of meaning and interpretations of complex text.
