Your Classroom, Your Say: Alternative Forms of Engagement

Activity: Public, Community and School Engagement › Public talk, lecture, debate, seminar, workshop

Description

This interactive session explored the meaning of willingness to communicate (WTC) and class participation from the perspectives of attendees. Rather than being given scholarly definitions from the literature, participants will be invited to discuss any similarities and differences between WTC and class participation, as well as to imagine various forms of participation that could take place in and out of the classroom. Following the participatory rituals established in the previous chatty classroom competition, participants will have the opportunity to peer assess each other’s contributions using poker chips.
