Question Type
I used mainly divergent and open style questions during the bulk
of the lesson, as I wanted students to explore all the possibilities of
each part of the discussion before moving on. Convergent
questions where students where students mainly recall
information they already know were used slightly less, and were
mainly used to as a sort of warm up to get conversation going.
I used convergent questions to introduce the lesson and get
conversation going, and to gauge what students already know
about the topic. I used open and divergent questions mainly
during the middle part of the lesson to stimulate more complex
discussion and encourage students to critically think. Evaluative
questions were used at the end of the lesson as a conclusion, to
discuss the topic more broadly and to see what new perspectives
they may have gained.
-I noticed about halfway into the lesson that the students near the
sides and back of the room did not participate in the discussion as
much as others, so I asked some of these students direct questions
in order to get some input from them in the discussion.
The students at the front of the room seemed to answer more
questions than others as well, however this may be because these
were generally the more vocal students in the class, and may not
have to do with where they were sitting.
-I had a PowerPoint with a series of images, and as each image
appeared I would ask the group questions like what do you think
the purpose of that machine would be? and how do you think it
functions? before revealing what each machine is called, what it
does, and how it works. I addressed some students directly when
it appeared as if they werent fully engaged in the discussion.
-I used wait time when students required more time to think
before coming up with an answer to a question, and I waited even
after a question has been answered so that I could hear more
students responses and opinions.
-Yes, when I seemed that a certain part of the room was not
responding to questions enough, I would make eye contact with
people in that group to encourage a response from them.
Overall Comments
some of the more vocal students, but with the amount of classes
and the short time span, it was difficult to get to know each
student.

Function of Schools
Did you observe the connection
of your schools with the broader
community? How did this
happen?
The school shares the local oval and tennis courts with the
community, as they are located next to the school. The
parking lot next to the oval and tennis courts is also being
used by school students and staff, as the schools own
parking lot is not large enough and is currently being
renovated.
The school website is also a tool that the school uses to
connect with the broader community and to inform them
about the inner workings of the school, including the
school values, information about specialised programs, as
well as the curriculum content of the courses that the
school runs. The website also gives the wider community
information about recent events within the school, such as
sporting events and the school ball.
The laser cutter at the school was also used to make
students who asked a gift for their fathers on fathers day.
