Audio Discussions

Audio dicussions can be used to enhance classroom interactions on a number of levels. Any time that learners have to present their work for scrutiny by peers, they are extra careful about what they say and do. As a result, more rigorous discussions emerge and learners are more likely to acquire new knowledge from the interactions.

A starting point for gauging the impact of any new tool would be to gather some information by asking:

  • What do you like best about the tool?
  • What do you like least about the tool?
  • On a scale of 1(=Least Satisfied) to 5(=Most Satisfied), rate interaction by this tool.
