hypothes.is: Minus style, media, tone, cadence and context - what is the core content of this story?
The speaker's narration and performance reflects on the cognitive impact of our deep culture and those mental schemas that help us make sense of the world around us. Undeniably, "style, media, tone, cadence, and context" are critical to our experience as learners. The key take a way for me is the value of engagement and how, we as teachers, must consider and plan for all modes of communication to ensure engagement. We also must be culturally aware of how those performances of communication may resonate with some students in our classroom while alienating others. Our approach must be culturally responsive to the experiences of all learners.
