Sophia: "--and why?"
Eli: I think good listening looks like if you understand completely, you'd be like, "ooh;" if you don't get something you are like "huh;" and sometimes if they tell you something you didn't know you say, "oh, that's what that was."
Sophia: Yah. I agree. And because people listen to what's happening.
Eli: What's happening in the classroom.
Sophia: Okay
Eli and Sophia: (referring to havruta guided questions): "What does good listening sound like?"
Sophia: It sounds quiet in the room, and only one person should be talking at once, and people should raise their hands.
Eli: Yah, I agree with that because if they were actually listening, they wouldn’t be talking. Well maybe they will because maybe they will be asking somebody questions.
Sophia: Yah. But they have to wait until they are done because they couldn't do it in the middle of the sentence because that wouldn't make sense.
Eli and Sophia: (referring to havruta guided questions): "What does good listening feel like?"
Eli: I think you would feel that, like you were in your own bubble in your ?desk/head and the bubble had-- Infusion: Integrating Jewish Values in a General Studies Classroom Beit Midrash Research Project Mandel Center for Studies in Jewish Education 2
Sophia: --the conversation in it--
Eli: --the conversation words in it and stuff--
Sophia: and you would feel good because you are having a good conversation, and you could share your opinion and what you are talking about. Eli (referring to havruta guided questions): "What do you think active listening means?"
Sophia: It means that someone listens a lot so they can hear what's going on and knows what is happening. And it means that a person is really listening hard. They really want to know what is going to happen.
Eli: Yah, like in your book where it's the end of your chapter and you really want to know what will happen.
