The Discussion Method in Classroom Teaching.

Gall, Meredith Damien; Gillett, Maxwell

Theory into Practice, v19 n2 p98-103 Spr 1980

Remarkably versatile and demonstrated as effective at all grade levels, the discussion method has great potential for classroom teaching. Teachers should use this method more often because it teaches students to speak freely, listen to others, analyze different points of view, and evaluate the effectiveness of a discussion. (CMJ)
