Transformative learning outcome
I must agree with Mezirow. He stated the more students become "producers" of knowledge, the more they realize the value of what they are learing and see the application to their own lives.
Michelle,
Yes, it's a great method to check for understanding and application at once :)

I absolutely agree. It follows the reasoning that once you can teach something, then you really know it.

Kathryn,
Not sure what you mean here - do you mean time for learning to take place?
Dr. Ruth Reynard
Both time and with the right teaching approaches.
Bettye,
The key here is that it is knowledge that makes the difference and not simply information - knowledge is produced when information is processed and applied in a meaningful way by each student. As instructors we have to allow time for that process to take place...
