In this structured pair-share with built-in accountability, students research two topics (or two different explanations of the same topic), work together to compare and contrast the topics and then individually write a one paragraph summary of both. |

THE PROTOCOLCheck out the official protocol from EduProtocols.com:
From our Prolific PD presentation in Dec. 2019:
EXAMPLE |
THE TEMPLATE: Google SlidesIn order to modify template, please make a copy.
In the Google Slides template, replace any text that says "Topic / Perspective A or B" with the actual name of the topic or perspective. When students make a copy of your modified template, they will change "Student 1" or "Student 2" references to their names.
On Slide 2, decide whether this is a lesson in which you want to provide the reading or viewing link, or have students research the topic on their own. You could also have them do the research, but provide suggested search terms (or brainstorm those together as a class before beginning, etc.) |
