Text Rendering Experience Protocol


The Text Rendering Experience

Purpose:             

To collaboratively construct meaning, clarify, and expand our thinking about a text or document.

Roles:  
A facilitator to guide the process.
A scribe to track the phrases and words that are shared.

Set Up:
Take a few moments to review the document and mark the sentence, the phrase, and the word that you think is particularly important for our parenting.

Steps:
1.  First Round: Each person shares a sentence from the document that he/she thinks/feels is particularly significant. The scribe writes it down.

2.  Second Round: Each person shares a phrase that he/she thinks/feels is particularly significant. The scribe records each phrase. The scribe writes it down.

3.  Third Round: Each person shares the word that he/she thinks/feels is particularly significant. The scribe records each word. The scribe writes it down.

4.  The group discusses what they heard and what it says about the document.

5.  The group debriefs the text rendering process.
