That’s what we have to avoid!
The fastest way to build interest is to get
students participating and involved. .
ESSENTIAL METHODS FOR INCREASING STUDENT PARTICIPATION
Choral Responses
Rapid Individual Turns
Quiet group Responses
Written group Responses
Random turns for individuals
Small-Group Short Responses
Small-Group long Responses
Partner Responses
CHORAL RESPONSES The teacher gives a signal to the students, and
everyone responds in unison.
RAPID INDIVIDUAL TURNS After everyone has responded chorally, quickly check
to see if individuals were listening by asking them the same questions. This ensures that everyone is attending.
QUIET GROUP RESPONSES The teacher asks questions and the students write
down their answers on a piece of personal chalkboard or on a sheet of paper and turn it upside down on their desk.
SMALL-GROUP SHORT RESPONSES
SMALL-GROUP LONG RESPONSES
PARTNER RESPONSES(AKA,DYADS, TRIADS)
Three things give the student the possibility of surpassing his
teacher: ask a lot of questions, remember the
answers, teach.
