Fishbowl Retakes

UPDATE: This retake protocol is for ALL FISHBOWLS until further notice.
YOU MUST COMPLETE ALL PORTIONS OF THE RETAKE
Use this as a checklist to help ensure you are successful.

ALL FISHBOWL RETAKES (chapters 4, 5, 6-7, 8-9) have been extended to Monday, Jan. 11 by 3:15 pm. No retakes submitted after this time will be accepted.  You need a purple relearning sheet for each retake you will complete.

If you would like to retake a fishbowl, follow the protocol below.

Fishbowl Retakes


You will need:
  • a video recording system (that can be emailed, like a YouTube video)
OR
  • a voice recording system (also will need to be emailed, maybe a VoiceMemo type app?) --> I have received many using Talk&Comment for Google Chrome, which is a FREE EXTENTION for Chrome available here
  • notes and text evidence
  • a Google Doc
  • A turned-in completed relearning document (purple sheet)


In order to complete this retake, you must:

  1. complete your purple relearning document before submitting the retake
  2. hold a 1-person discussion.  It may seem weird, but you are going to record yourself talking, either in a voice recording system, or as a video, using notes and text evidence just like you would in an in-class fishbowl.  You should plan on recording for about 7-10 minutes, or as long as you need to concisely report on your ideas with supporting evidence.
  3. Create a Google doc titled with YOUR NAME (first and last) and the fishbowl title retake.  It may seem like a lot, but this clearly labels the retake you are submitting for assessment purposes.
    1. Ex: Joe Schmo: Night Ch. 4 Fishbowl Retake
  4. On your Google doc, write a brief summary of the main points you discuss in your video/voice recording, as well as any new learnings you discovered through your thinking process.
  5. Make sure you have shared your Google doc with me (ctrecek@lewiscentral.org).
  6. Send me an email with the subject that matches your Google Doc title, and includes both an attachment of your Google Doc and the link to your video/recording.
