  • in this sprouts teaching technique, we introduced Cold Call, a simple question method teachers can use to increase attention, boost energy and get a better understanding of their students.

  • Teachers often raise a question and pick the first hand that goes up likely.

  • That's a good and motivated students sitting in the first row already knowing the answer.

  • The student who is less eager and less likely to know the answer is dozing off in the back.

  • And that's a problem with cold Call.

  • The teacher randomly names a student to give the answer.

  • J names some ideal conditions for growing rice.

  • The benefit for the students is that everybody gets a shot.

  • And since no student would know who is next, they all have to pay attention.

  • This gives shy students more voice, increases the energy level and creates a feeling of fellowship.

  • As all students are equally treated.

  • Teachers also benefit first.

  • It's more fun because everybody feels more engaged.

  • Second, it's fast as he or she doesn't need to wait for hands to go up.

  • Third, the teacher gets a better understanding of who already mastered a concept or who needs more health.

  • When you introduce cold call.

  • We recommend using simple questions to get students on board.

  • Once they're prepared, the level can raise in a more advanced form.

  • Teachers can use cold call to moderate a discussion.

  • If Jay got the answer, only half right, the teacher could go on and say, Sonya, give Jay a hint about the weather.

  • Rice seeds seemed toe like.

  • Then the teacher turns back to J to give him another shot to get it completely right.

  • Please use the comments section below to let us know what you think.

  • If you are a student, tell us if your teacher uses cold call.

  • If you are a teacher, share with us how you apply it in class.

  • And if it works for you, we're releasing updates regularly.
