Description: These are questions posed by lead facilitators during one-on-one meetings to elicit educator’s thinking about and reflection upon failure within the selected video clips.
1. What did you notice about your own teaching?
2. Why did you pick this clip to show?
3. What might be at the root of the learner’s “struggle” or “challenge” or “sense of failure”?
4. What might you have done? What could you have done?

Description: This guide was created by the Museum of Science in Boston to help their educators remember their video and audio setup. Consider something similar if you have different people setting up or are often setting up and breaking down your equipment.

Description: Create a list of what to do when you are stuck. We suggest this be created by the youth and educators at the beginning of the making activity. This becomes a living document that can be added to throughout the activity, whether this be a drop-in session, a workshop, or a week-long camp. If a week-long camp, youth can add a dot at the end of the day to note which strategies were used. Use a different color dot each day. See images below.

The Unstuck Poster is a Talkback Board, an anonymous way to gather feedback. It displays a question, prompt, or list of options that visitors can respond to by posting a short reply or voting with a sticker. For more, check out this resource by the Connected Learning Lab: Talkback Board Repository

Description: The three cards – healthy, band-aid, surgery – are utilized to reflect on different scenarios, events, or even video clips. For example, suppose as a team you are considering how the material prep may or may not have led to a failure moment as illustrated in one of the video clips shared by a lead facilitator. Healthy would indicate a positive reaction; surgery a negative reaction; and band-aid indicates in need of repair.

Description: This observation form was created to provide educator’s guidance in what to consider when selecting their short video clip. Questions include (a) Where do you see examples of yourself effectively facilitating around failure? Why do you think it was effective? and (b) Did you notice any language you used that was particularly helpful (or not helpful) in facilitating failure?
