Class time is precious, and it goes without saying that it needs to be dedicated to your curriculum. Although those minutes pass quickly, you can give students an extra benefit by dedicating about 10 minutes of class time to learning transfer. This episode offers some brief discussion and reflection prompts that any writing teacher can use to bookend whatever activities they already have planned. These prompts, inspired by transfer scholar Randi Engle's research on "expansive framing," can help maximize the benefit of class time for your students.
