Students have the chance to embrace a prompt to, relatively quickly, develop an answer that showcases their knowledge, ties learning to real life, and contextualizes their perspective – then asked to share that work with the class. They’ll improve with practice and learn from peer sharing. You’ll know their learning is seen as relevant beyond school.
