Reaction/response index cards are usually requested
by instructors so that you will consider carefully what you think or feel about
something you have done or learned in the class. The following guidelines are intended to be
used for reacting to a class activity although they could easily be used for
reactions to videos, too. Do whatever
you have been asked to do, and while doing, think about the following
questions.
·
How do you feel about what you are doing
in the class?
·
What do you understand or misunderstand?
·
Can you identify with the acquisition of American Sign Language?
·
What would be the best way to evaluate
the learning activity?
Your reaction/response index card should include a
concise, two or three sentences, focused “thesis” which is the statement of your
thought. A good reaction/response can be
a prediction of the effects of what you are learning in the class.

Does this mean we have been doing the reaction cards incorrectly?
ReplyDeleteNo, I just wish to expand your skills in doing the reaction cards by adding indepth and meaningful thoughts. I just told our classroom assistant: "The students need to become more objective; they need to offer perspectives instead of telling me it was fun and I'm awesome."
DeleteThis helps to know what the structire of our responses should be thank you for this post!
ReplyDeleteThis is really helpful. I didnt have much of an idea of what to write! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteyou do end up wanting us to supply our own note cards correct?
ReplyDeleteI think the index cards are mentioned as required material for the course. Please check the syllabus.
DeleteThank you for the clarity on the reaction cards, I will try to imply a more focused thesis!
ReplyDeleteThis does help me to better know what to write. However it is very hard for me to come up with something meaningful in a matter of 2 or 3 minutes. I have a learning disability that makes it very hard for me to output my thoughts. So while I may know in my head what I want to say, putting it on paper isn't all that easy. But I will do my best.
ReplyDeleteThat is very helpful, thank you.
ReplyDeleteThank you for that helpful information.
ReplyDeleteThis helps a lot. Thank you :)
ReplyDeletethank you for this information. I will try to replay it to my cards.
ReplyDeleteI really like the idea of the index cards because then we can talk about how we think we are doing in the class, and talk about our struggles and see that we are not the only one in the class struggling.
