Question.5339 - M3: Observation Practice Assignment DescriptionFor this assignment, you will rehearse conducting classroom observations. This is an opportunity to work with and reflect on various note-taking techniques and to practice low-inference note-taking (using description, avoiding judgement). You will observe 10 minutes from two classroom videos (10 minutes from each video, 20 minutes total). You can select the ten minutes from any part of the lesson (e.g., beginning, middle, or end). Based on your future professional goals, choose two videos by grade level and subject area from this website provided by the Massachusetts Department of EducationLinks to an external site.. For each observation, you will include the following components:A link to the videoInformation about the setting of the observation (e.g., grade level, subject, lesson topic).Your observation notes (Tip: We are learning--I do not expect you to have mastered note-taking at this point. There is no need to rewatch the video to try to perfect your notes. Watch the video attentively once, and do your best with note-taking.)Two reflective paragraphs that address the following questions:What note-taking technique did you use? Why did you choose this technique? (answer for observation 2 only; everyone will use a wide lens approach for observation 1)What opportunities does this technique offer?What might be missed or left out when using this technique?How challenging was it to use this technique? What were the challenges, or what made it user-friendly?In what cases would you recommend using this technique?How well did you do in terms of keeping your notes descriptive and non-judgmental? Provide an example to back up your self-assessment.Observation 1:For one video, take notes about ten minutes of the video with a wide lens approach. Your notes will provide a script for what is happening in the classroom. In other words, you are trying to write an exact record of everything you see and hear (direct quotes) in the classroom. Observation 2:Using this PDF in which Sullivan and Glanz present various note-taking techniques, choose one note-taking approach to use with 10 minutes from your second video. Some observation techniques may require that you scan your notes rather than type them up (3rd bullet point above). To facilitate your use of the observation tools offered by Sullivan and Glanz, I am providing a Google drive folder that has a blank template of each toolLinks to an external site.. You can download the tool that you select and use it for your observation. (Feel free to use these templates for your Clinical Supervision Project as well!)
