Pair-Share Good: Pause at least 3 times for 2 minutes Better: Pause and let students compare notes every 20 minutes

Simple Techniques 1 (or 2) minute papers i.e., “What is one take-away message for today’s class?” Muddiest point Make sure you come back next class to answer questions. In-class question Create question and answer question

Active Listening Technique After Student A answers a question, ask Student B to summarize the response of Student A.

Panel Discussions Assign a topic Pair with the in-class question

Student Debates Allows students to take a position and support it with logic/data BUT why not make it more interesting?
