The 12-Step Session
Step 3: Break Up Tasks

The Tutor can ask the Student to identify the concepts and/or skills that are needed to do the task and can fill in any gaps in the Student's knowledge. This shows the logic structure of the task and sets the agenda for the work to be done.


Tutor:
OK. First, I want you to explain chi-square to me as if I knew nothing about stats. This will show you how well you understand chi-square.
Student:
OK. I'll try.
Tutor:
After that, you can work some sample problems to see what you have to brush up on.
