Students need to be able to talk about their learning with their teachers and other students in a variety of contexts to become independent, self-motivated learners. Research proves that students learn and retain more from dialogic discussions than through lecture or question-and-answer sessions. This workshop is designed to help teachers transform their classrooms into active, engaging learning centers by organising thought-provoking classroom discussions.
