Send us a textAs I was considering this challenge, I reflected on the CME model from Pop-Up Studio: Responsive Teaching for Today’s Learners by Misty Paterson. This has been my latest book club read, but more importantly my aha text. Going through the book club experience with this text opened up so many possibilities of how to use these ideas in a variety of ways. Isn’t that the purpose of a prototype? It’s a tool we use to try out our ideas, so we can evolve our practice. The CME model was designed with “see me” in mind, so “we intentionally see the person within the learning engagement…We can see personal interests, understandings, wonderings, creativity, thinking, and agency surface.” (Paterson, 2021)So what exactly is the CME model? It’s a construct that helps learners to look at the interplay of using concepts to connect learning experiences with materials. That sounds very simple, but it’s quite powerful. In this episode, we will explore how to create a prototype with the CME model with in our unit of inquiry.
