Focus: Through my research, I hope to see a connection between how much time/energy is spent on lower order concerns and the effectiveness of sessions.
Questions to consider:
How will the effectiveness of the session be evaluated? (Through student body language, Post-session student satisfaction sheets)
Information to note in the session:
When coaches switch to LOC within the session.
Is the shift student-directed or coach-directed.
The student’s body language during the session to gauge if they are engaged in the session.
Student satisfaction surveys.
Sources:
In progress, right now all I know is that I’ll be using an article about body language in order to develop a schema by which to gauge engagement in a session.
Plan for gathering information:
I will observe sessions at the Kean Writing Center, paying attention to when the coach switches to lower order concerns and what brings about the shift. I will then give the writers the student satisfaction survey from the McAndrews and Registad book in order to gain knowledge into individual satisfaction. I will also follow up with the coaches about what prompted the switch to lower order concerns.
