Field Notes
every time the students
came to the class, they
sat in the same place:
the students who were
eager to learn sat at the
front and the students
who did not pay
attention to the class sat
at the back
during the in-class
writing activities, the
students who sat at the
front actively asked the
teacher questions,
however, only one of
the students who sat at
the back of the
classroom actively
asked the teacher
questions
only one of the
students who sat at the
front of the classroom
played with her
cellphone every now
and then during the in-
class writing
activities; other
students who sat at the
front concentrated on
their in-class writing
the ones who sat at the
back of the classroom
played with their
cellphone at least once
during in-class writing
during the pair
work or group work
in-class activities,
the students
preferred separating
the task to work
individually rather
than interacting
with their partner or
group members to
fulfill the task
collaboratively

the students actively
asked me questions
during their facts and
opinions writing
activity, which means
teacher-student
interaction increased
each student focused
on their facts and
opinions in their
writing, which means
they were engaged in
their writing in class
no student played with
his/her cellphone or
used his/her laptop to
do irrelevant
activities, which
means they all focused
on their in-class
writing

the students who
didn't bring their
laptop to class
preferred working
with the ones who
had a laptop rather
than writing their
facts and opinions
on paper, which
means student-
student interaction
increased
