Chapter 3. Teaching Students How to Make Toast
3.1 Instructional Context
Jenn Stephenson – Queen’s University
The ICE model (Ideas, Connections, Extensions) is more than just an assessment framework or a compositional structure for an analytical line of argumentation. ICE is not only a road map for an evolution from novice to master; it’s a way of thinking, a mindset. This chapter describes how one instructor uses ICE as a valediction to move students towards an activist mode where applying ICE and “living in extensions” is an invitation to change the world.
