My Project
I have 130 students from 7-12 grade in Miami public schools learning French virtually with me. Their main struggle is learning. They do not know how to take notes and study them. We created what we call "Star guides" that guide them through the lessons and help them take note of the important information in the lessons. The goal is to then have them graduate to taking Cornell notes independently without the scaffold of the star guides.
The students do not have access to printers and many of them are not allowed to download the notes onto their cpublic school computers, making the course doubly challenging for them, and unnecessarily so.
By printing the star guides for the entire course, my students will experience the success that comes from taking clear notes and using those to further learning and knowledge. Note taking, reviewing and studying notes is a critical skill to learning and that is not being explicitly taught to my students.
This will also allow us to delve deeper in the language and have some fun with it.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
