Jessica Hurley:
So for that three-way reflective meeting that you have after the observation, can you share some strategies that help make that most impactful for all involved?
Dr. Dawa:
Yeah, I can go first. So for me, I use positive reinforcement a lot to encourage my students. So I want this reflection meeting is more like to be a very safe place for them to express their concerns or thoughts and to share their teaching with us. And I want to be supportive in their journey. And for me, I write down some main points that we discussed in the meeting and after the meeting, sometimes I send to my interns and this meeting notes provide a reference for our future meetings. And when my students look at it, they can see their progress over time
