Joe and Daves presentation

two of my classmates recently did a presentation based off of the idea of profiling convicts and such. how they went about it was to flip it that the students were working in groups where one was facing away from their fellow group mate describing a memory to the other person who happens to be trying to draw this memory using the descriptions that the fellow person is using. this lesson was fun at first, but then you hit some snags. for example, it was hard for fellow students to hear each other over everyone talking at once plus you happen to be facing away from them. the other issue was people started to automatically begin drawing instead of writing down the questions that they were asking their fellow partner. why was this last one an issue? well it became an issue when the other partner started to draw then realized they didn't plan their composition out so that when they asked another important detail about the others memory there wasn't any room to add that important detail. i felt that if Joe and Dave made that as a point in creating their artwork in the beginning of the lesson then they would have seen better results in the students work.
