Class Experience

A. OVERVIEW
** It is suggested that prior to signing up, students enroll in “Let’s Talk: Conversation for Introverts – Level I” **
**Note: Our April - August sessions met once a week.  Sessions running October - December will meet every other week.**
**DECEMBER 2020 UPDATE: We are back to meeting every week and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. **

An important component of Mr. LeCara's “Let’s Talk: Conversation for Introverts” classes is encouraging students to reach out,...

LEARNING GOALS
• Entering/exiting a conversation
• Starting a conversation
• Maintaining a conversation
• Making and maintaining eye contact
• Feeling comfortable enough to ask questions
• Recognizing/reading/responding to verbal and nonverbal cues
• Developing an individual voice

HOMEWORK
• Come prepared to engage
• Practice conversation strategies taught in "Let’s Talk" classes to use here
• Come with a topic or two to bring up 
• Craft questions that can be used in the event none can be thought of on the spot
• Journal about experiences: note successes and how it made you feel; self-reflect on what you want to work on

Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

PROGRESS ASSESSED
• Entering/exiting a conversation
• Starting a conversation
• Maintaining a conversation
• Making and maintaining eye contact
• Feeling comfortable enough to ask questions
• Recognizing/reading/responding to verbal and nonverbal cues
• Developing an individual voice

Students will use their personal experience, prior knowledge, and skills learned from “Let’s Talk” to engage in conversation and make connections.  Learning will take place through the ability to develop a comfort level discussing safe topics with what may be a rotating group of attendees.  Students will have a chance to practice, and then demonstrate, their earlier class learning as they connect, bond with, and establish relationships with others who are familiar with their experiences and their struggles.

55 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.
