How in heaven’s name does someone BUILD A BRAIN! Please allow me to explain. In the late 1990’s, I was watching a webinar about teaching for intelligence.

Building on Dr. Zehr’s classroom comments...What if the teacher asks learners to wait 5-10 seconds before raising their hands, when she asks a question? Could this encourage more kids thinking and more raised hands when the waiting period is over? (I’m curious what could happen if she asks if anybody needs more time.) Also, could it give students more time to think, where a quick hand up and an answer stifles the others’ thought processes?
