Turning the table questions.

Public

Discussion:

If I have a small class; once the students are comfortable, I will let a student teach a portion of the lesson and I will act as a student and ask questions. The students really enjoy this and want me to make it part of the regular class. They find it a lot of fun and easier to learn when they get the chance to lecture. In the beginning there are some students who have a fear of doing this but sooner or later they want to try. They have commented that they anticipate what questions I or other students may ask and prepare themselves.
