Highly effective discussions require a host of invisible skills that students may or may not pick up organically over time. Without careful instruction or scaffolding, class discussions are often more like Q&A sessions than they are a thoughtful exchange of ideas.
We’re talking with Dr. Sherrish Holloman and Kelsey Hammond this week, two of the facilitators who’ve led our Keep the Kids Talking online course. They’ll share what they’ve learned about the art and craft of teaching towards discussions and the lessons they’ve learned from their own classroom experiences.
