Interaction, a very powerful tool to enhance student’s participation.

Rate 5

According to what I read in the articles “10 benefits of getting students to participate in classroom discussion”, “Increase students interaction with think pair shares and circle chats” and also in the presentation interactive power point, I would like to say that participation is one of the most important factor throughout the learning process; that is why we have some techniques to enhance the students’ participation such as blank slide, Quick Quiz: ConcepTest, Think, Pair, Share technique and some others. Even though we have a lot of techniques to interact, I think that the most effective ones are: Think-Pair-Share and the Circle Chat because in these two techniques we can see a very good interaction between students and teachers. First, The Think-Pair-Share technique students are given time to think, process the information, think in the correct way to share this information and share it; thus, the Think-Pair-Share technique is a very effective tool to enhance interaction. Second, we have the Circle Chat which is an activity that applies a student-student interaction, what I really like about this technique is that each student have the opportunity to speak and share his/her thoughts. Concluding, I would like to say that applying these techniques students will be able to develop an interaction in the classroom that will help them to share information and also they will be encouraged to practice a cooperative learning.
