Week 4!

This week was a great learning experience. When Roberta visits our class this past Tuesday, I found her methods of picking a specific topic or narrowing our questions down very useful. After class I told her that I never used this technique through out my schooling. It’s funny how some very basic could solve most problems, in this case just choosing a book. I meet with two out of three of my mentees just to touch basis with them and figure out how far they were in their research project. Both of them are still at the beginning stage of their research project, still undecided what they want to do their project I then stepped in and used the Question tool to narrow down their search.

  2. This is great that you are applying what we are learning in class to your mentee interactions! Did they find the question tool helpful in their search for a topic?
