Through listening, the plot takes further shape. Our listening may change the question and questions rise up and move us to further exploration. By moving into the community to explore and document, we take the question into practical situations. In gathering new experience and evidence through conversations, observation and reading, students can see new understandings beginning to form. It also requires time and a forum to reflect on what we have discovered.
Stories come to resolution through events and new insights.
For students, reflection through discussion and writing moves them to clarify the meaning of the work that has been accomplished. When new understanding blossoms, there is a moment of transformation. Something new comes out of student learning and is presented to the community, increasing a sense of accomplishment and achievement and making a contribution to the learning and understanding of others.
