CASW-Session 2 -Presentation 1
Presenter: Mahua Roy
Facilitator: Mr.Amarnathan
Participants: Anitha, Srini, Mahesh, Neela and Raji
Resources used for presentation:
-Student's Work-A 6 piece KG card board sheet with the outline of world map, exploring a route with pop-ups.
- Participants were provided with an handout which included details like the targeted grade, the objective, time taken to complete the activity and details of each blocks work, problems encountered and the key questions.
These were the two important key questions that was placed in front of the group:
-What could have been done differently to get the children to apply principles of art and Design & Technology more effectively?
-Would assessing application of skills have led to more motovation on their part?
Clarifying questions
-Was each member in the group provided with roles?
Response: Mohua wanted students to decide what they would like to do.
-Was there an handout given to the students which spoke about assessment criteria for the art section?
Response: Instructions related to assessment was shared with the students but there was no document that could remind the students again and again
Participation discussion:
Most of us in the group felt it was an excellent activity, there has been lot of planning involved by both the sos teacher and the art teacher. I think it might be the best take back activity for srini who is the geography teacher. Most of us in the group felt that the reason for the incomplete success could be because the activity was stretched for the period of one month, there were many suggestions that was provided by the group like
-Provide assessment criteria
-To teach students to create paper objects that are important for the activity before the activity had started
-Model it with example
-Clear instructions about what is expected
-Physical spacing which could help in efficient monitoring
The collaborative strategies :
-Activity to be more student context oriented
-Emphasize on Assessment criteria
-Precheck on Application of skills
-Physical spacing of students
The whole process took place in a very organized format with everyone having enough time and equal chance for dialogue. Though mohua had lot of take back from this session the only worry she had is how would she implement these strategies now-i.e before April.
It was a great presentation with great piece of work where everyone of us took back some thought- thank you mohua.

I think the problem of implementing strategies has to be teased out with practicality in mind. Mohua could be selective in the strategies that she can effectively try in the given time span. Also it is not necessary to use the strategies in similar or identical situations. For example, if Mohua wants to try another design technique over a shorter time period and see if the outcome of student work is of better quality, regardless of which scenario it is tried in, she would be addressing her key question without bothering about the content of the area in which she is using it.
