Published by the Open University, this book is written for all university and college teachers interested in experimenting with discussion methods in their classrooms. Discussion as a Way of Teaching is a book full of ideas, techniques, and usable suggestions on how to prepare students and teachers to participate in discussion; how to get discussions started; how to keep discussions going and how to ensure that teachers' and students' voices are kept in some sort of balance.
