在居住之初花时间与您的学生共同制定目标可以帮助建立投资，并可以帮助您联系和支持每个学生。

We’ve represented this generative process as a tree: Your goals are the trunk connecting the base or roots of a student’s previously established knowledge or art-form specific knowledge to the branches of a student’s curiosity—what they want to learn. By doing this, your goals build toward an engaging, supportive, and creative environment.

When asking questions to generate these goals, think about:

• 您的 位置性 in this specific classroom: What is the power dynamic and how does this impact your facilitation of questions and expectations?
• Making your line of inquiry accessible to your students. Use 不同的方式 for students to respond to or offer questions (e.g., graffiti paper, open-ended, multiple choice, thumbs up/middle/down, move physically along a continuum, write on slips of paper, etc.).
• 有意识地创造一个 无成见课堂 和 在学生中建立社区。
