William Fawcett Hill's Learning through Discussion

William Fawcett Hill's Learning through Discussion

All students need to develop critical thinking skills to apply both to the classroom and the â€œreal world.â€ To this end, the authors of this volume, as in Hillâ€™s original text, use the eight-step plan of Learning Through Discussionâ€”check-in, vocabulary, general statement of authorâ€™s message, identification and discussion of major themes and sub-topics, application of material to other works and to self, and evaluation of group and individual performance. Also discussed are cooperative learning, active participation, and interactionâ€”criteria essential for developing an effective discussion group. The combination of cognitive and personal skills employed by the method allows the group to reach its primary goal: extended discussion and deeper understanding of the material.
