Your pace matters.
Pause, repeat and revisit an idea before moving on. Silence is time to think; it is not treated as a wrong answer.
THE CITIZENLINGO APPROACH
Small steps.
Space to answer.
Meaning comes first. A clear model, an exact repeat and a simple choice help you work through one idea at a time.
- Statement
Read or hear one clear model.
- Exact repeat
Repeat the same words.
- Closed choice
Consider two alternatives.
- Silent wait
Take the time you need.
- Conditional feedback
Feedback depends on the response.
TEXT WALKTHROUGH · CIVICS QUESTION 1
See one idea unfold.
This demonstrates a draft teaching sequence. It has no audio, microphone, speech recognition or answer grading.
You control when to continue. No response is recorded.
Guided practice, then recall.
A closed choice checks understanding of a model. Independent review asks you to recall an answer without those cues. They are different kinds of practice.
