Harkness Method

Harkness Method Reflection

1. I definitely need to work on speaking more during a discussion. I do participate every once in a while, but sometimes I tend to forget and then class is over. (spoke once)

2. I didn’t talk at all on this one, and I think this was the first time that I really tried Harkness method ever. (didn’t speak)

3. I remember this day, I had a couple ideas, but they all seemed to get pretty much covered before I got a chance to really speak. (spoke once)

4. Absent

I think that Harkness method is just one that I have to adjust to. It is not the way my English class was taught last year and is a very diverse and unique method. I have never been much of a talker in class, but I get a lot from listening and taking notes. I try my best to voice my ideas when I have them, if they aren’t said before I get a chance. I am going to try to work on thinking about this method as I am reading. I will then try to come to class with multiple ideas that I am confident about sharing.
