"You can tell students what they need to know very fast. But they will forget what you tell them even faster..."

Chickering & Gamson, 1987“Learning is not a spectator sport. Students do not learn much just by sitting in class listening to teachers, memorizing prepackaged assignments, and spitting out answers. They must talk about what they are learning, write about it, relate it to past experiences, apply it to their daily lives. They must make what they learn part of themselves.”

Silberman…• What I hear, I forget.• What I hear and see, I remember a little.• What I hear, see, and ask questions
about or discuss with someone else, I begin to understand.
• What I hear, see, discuss and do, I acquire knowledge and skill.
• What I teach to another, I master.
