Mary,
I generally find interviews with students
alone in an isolated manner (answering one question etc) not as interesting ,
and am not sure my students would believe or trust them without knowing them
better (ie. Later year student in their faculty). If wondered if you could do
a “spot interview” with a student commenting on what they were
doing and what they liked and disliked about TBL at that moment, while actually
doing it , would be interesting. Try to make sure the tone is as if talking secretly
or covertly to a friend who just looked in (not wanting to disturb the other students
engaged in TBL stuff)!
For example:
1.
Have a
group of students studying (reading prep materials) and have one turn to the
camera as if talking to a “viewer at home” describing what they
were doing and perhaps some of their concerns (reading enough?, properly
prepared?) or what they were looking forward to (learning concepts and using
them).
2.
have a
student taking a RAT and look into the camera saying “ we’re doing
the irat and the questions are a bit tough but luckily I studied and also I
sure hope I am able to help my team members in the G-Rat”
3.
in a
case discussion or activity catch them mid heated inter-team discussion and
have them say…”our group discussed the issue and are pretty sure we
have the right answer…now we just have to convince the rest of the class!”
By first deciding what you want to bring
out (preconceptions of many students, fears, challenges, thrills), you can
integrate it into a fun “along for the ride” type experience.
Just some thoughts. Happy to be formally
involved if you’re looking for some help/collaboration. The more I think
of it , I WOULD like to get involved….if possible.

Subject: TBL Making a Student
Movie Suggestions Requested
Hi,
Starting this semester, I would like to get a TBL student movie underway. I
have a supportive broadcasting department at my college so I am not concerned
about any technical issues or movie making issues.
I
am, however, looking for your ideas and suggestions about a student movie, if
you have any. I do enjoy the videos that already exist on the TBL website. I am
looking to make a similar movie that interviews students at my college about
their experiences in our TBL course offerings. I would like to use a similar
interview format. Are there specific questions I should ask? Questions to
avoid? I want the movie to be something new TBL students can watch at the
beginning of a course and kind of understand what to expect as well as hear
from other students about their own experiences in a TBL classroom.
Any
insights, recommendations on questions, or general recommendations would
be appreciated.
