Active learning

I am a believer, the active learning strategies if used well do work wonders. The ones I have used in my classes and have found to be very effective are: "think-pair-share", "one-minute paper" and "active-co-operative learning". Fancy names but the ideas are very simple, may be I will elaborate another time...... Today we have first active-co-operative session for this semester's class. I am going to be the listener and students will to the chalk-talk. A little apprehensive how it will all go but looking forward to it nevertheless.
