A Conversation about ECCTYC

At the start of the 2005-2006 academic year, Modesto Junior College hired many new faculty members to join their already flourishing Literature and Language Arts Division. In addition to presenting at the conference, five new faculty hires, as well as one of the members of the hiring committee, ventured to the ECCTYC conference in Long Beach California. This blog is a creation of the conversations that ensued following the presentation and attendance of that conference.

Implementation

Because there was such a variety of presentations and we, as teachers, are a very diverse group, we continued to discuss the possibilities for implementation of presentation materials and theories as we left the conference and throughout our trip home. Several sessions stood out as having instructional value, including material on peer analysis essays and peer review techniques.

Adrienne, I like the sound of the Peer Analysis Essay. I have a few more questions. Does the writer eventually see the reviewer's comments? What directions do you provide to the reviewer? I forgot to ask also...do you have a handout outlining the scaffolding discussed in the panel on text-based analysis. I would love to get a copy of that.
