Managing dialogue around exemplars
This ‘Masterclass’ discusses the use of exemplars as a means of promoting student engagement with the nature of quality work. We examine the rationale for using exemplars; unpack and address some of the main implementation challenges; and develop a blueprint for principled use of exemplars. A focal point of the analysis is the management of effective dialogues about exemplars. ‘Delayed exposure to exemplars’ is also discussed whereby students carry out a task first, before analyzing related exemplars.
