What kinds of things did you notice about the reflective writing sample I shared with you?
The 7 Norms of Collaborative Work
Pausing Pausing before responding or asking a question allows time for thinking and
enhances dialogue, discussion and decision-making. Paraphrasing Using a paraphrase starter that is comfortable for you: “So…” or “As
you are…” or “You’re thinking…” and following the statement with a paraphrase assists members of the group to hear and understand each other as they formulate decisions.
Probing Using gentle open-ended probes or inquiries such as, “Please say more…” or “Can you tell me about…” or “Then, are you saying?” increases clarity and precision of the group’s thinking.
Putting Ideas on the Table Ideas are the heart of a meaningful dialogue. Label the intention of your comments. For example, you might say, “Here is one idea…” or “One thought I have is…” or “Here is a possible approach…” or “I’m just thinking out loud…”
Paying Attention to Self and Others Meaningful dialogue is facilitated when each group member is conscious of self and of others and is aware of not only what s/he is saying but how it is said and how others are responding. This includes paying attention to learning style when planning for, facilitating and participating in group meetings. Responding to others in their own language forms is one manifestation of this norm.
Presuming Positive Intentions Assuming that others’ intentions are positive promotes and facilitates meaning dialogue and eliminates unintentional putdowns. Using positive presuppositions in speech is one manifestation of this norm.
Pursuing a Balance Between Advocacy and Inquiry Maintaining a balance between advocating for a position and inquiring about one’s own and other’s position assists the group to become a learning organization.

Student in context—Group protocol Step 1. 20-30 minutes—Presenter distributes the an overview or outline of their
work. Presenter then discusses Step 2. 2 minutes PEERS formulate their probing questions; write on paper, submit
to presenter, and read to group. Step 3. 10 minutes—PEERS ask clarifying questions, Presenter responds. Step 4. 15 minutes—PEERS discuss the material presented. What did we hear? What
didn’t we hear that we needed to know more about? What do we think about the questions and the issues? The conversation should include both “warm” and “cool” comments. The presenter does not speak but listens and takes notes.
Step 5. 5 minutes—The presenter responds to what they heard. Step 6. 5 minutes—All members engage in short reflective writing on what you
heard from the data presented and how it interacts with the professional literature that you brought.
Step 7. 10 minutes each person presents key points from your written thoughts—small group discussion encouraged here.
Step 8. 15 minutes—WHOLE GROUP share—Big Aha’s; Questions that came up for whole group contemplation--What can you share about your own experience based on the data presentation and discussion?
