Scope and Interview Write-ups

11/5/2018

 
STARTER:  Project Scope
  1. How far-reaching do we want to work on this issue? Animas High School? ALL Durango schools? All Durango High Schools? All of Durango, both adults and kids alike? All of La Plata County? All of La Plata County Schools?
  2. Do you think we need to narrow our scope to one demographic of people (i.e. high schoolers) or one region (i.e. Durango v. La Plata County) or do you think we can break into focus groups and some people can work on a solution for high schools, while others can work with the homeless population, and others adults, etc…? Or will that water down our impact?

Announcements
  • Honors discussion question and part 3 due Thursday for our in-class discussion
  • Writing conferences today, see whiteboard
  • Refinements on essays are due 1 week after conference if you choose to refine it to show me growth or improve your grade (same thing)]
  • Pay attention to the process we're using for our SD project as it is just as much about teaching you how to design your own projects (ie for Senior Project) and best way to create sustainable change as it is to actually solve mental health issues in Durango in some way. 
  • Starters: I will have you bring them to our end of semester conference in December. I'm not grading them until then. 

3 small groups
Share out your starter responses and try to come to consensus on the scope.  Some additional things to talk about in this discussion:


  1. Where do you think you can have the biggest impact?
  2. Who do you think could needs our efforts the most?
  3. What are the benefits of a large scope?  Of a narrow scope?
  4. What are the drawbacks of a large scope?  Of a narrow scope?
  5. As a group, write down what your group would like in terms of scope, and a few sentences of your rationale.

Whole Class
Share out what your group decided on with regards to scope. Elect one person from our class to meet with representatives from the other two pods to come to consensus on scope.
