3. www.tie.net Looking at Student Work is a process for using the materials generated by students to provide reflection and guidance for instructional design. LASW typically uses a protocol for having what may be difficult or challenging conversations.

4. www.tie.net What is a protocol? Agreed upon guidelines for a conversation Why use a protocol? Structure makes it safe to ask challenging questions of each other Allows group to make the most of the time available Focus is in-depth, insightful conversation about teaching and learning. (not the protocol)

5. www.tie.net Student work in schools is serious work. Excellent professional development Demonstrates the effort to understand and master content Accountability Collaboration Collective improvement

6. www.tie.net Inquiry stance is key: what can one learn, not see what you already know. Work should be public and collaborative, LASW breaks down the isolationist tendencies. Reflective dialogue enhances and refines classroom practice. Provides formal/written documentation of teacher and student learning. Must be connected to serious changes in curriculum development. The form and function of the protocol should match the purpose for LASW.

7. www.tie.net Stay focused on the evidence that is present in the work. Look openly and broadly; don't let your expectations cloud your vision. Look for patterns in the evidence that provide clues to how and what the student was thinking.

8. www.tie.net Listen without judging. Tune in to differences in perspective. Use controversy as an opportunity to explore and understand each other's perspectives. Focus on understanding where different interpretations come from. Make your own thinking clear to others. Be patient and persistent.

9. www.tie.net Ask yourself, "Why do I see this student work in this way? What does this tell me about what is important to me?" Look for patterns in your own thinking. Tune in to the questions that the student work and your colleagues' comments raise for you. Compare what you see and what you think about the student work with what you do in the classroom.

10. www.tie.net Be a friendly, honest critical friend… Aim is to improve designer’s idea NOT replace it with your teaching priorities, style, or favorite activities – What happened – NOT how it should be changed. Provide useful feedback – Did effect match intent? Give useful guidance – How might the gaps in intent vs effect be removed?

11. www.tie.net Your job is to primarily LISTEN. Clarify when asked. Do Not explain, defend or justify design decisions. Pay attention to the strengths of your design and how you might improve the design. INTENTEFFECT

12. www.tie.net What did we learn about how the students in this classroom think and learn? What about the process helped you see and learn these things? What new perspectives did colleagues provide? How can you make use of your colleagues' perspectives? What questions about teaching and assessment did looking at the students’ work raise? How can you pursue these questions further? Are there things you would like to try in your classroom as a result of looking at the students’ work?
