More than once, I've said, "There is too much talking going on in here!" when referring to the noise level in the room!
Yet, more than once, I've "drifted" while sitting in a class and the teacher has droned on and on and on........
It's made me think about who is talking more and who is talking less. If we hope to increase student engagement, in many classrooms teachers should talk LESS and students should talk MORE!
Some interesting ideas!
