Discussion is a tremendously powerful tool for students to engage in learning. From formulating one’s own ideas into words to listening to others’ ideas, discussion supports learners to grow and strengthen their conceptual knowledge, to connect back to their own and their peers’ lived experience, to share cultural knowledge and expertise, and ultimately, to make better sense of the world. It is often in discussion where student ideas and experiences can be centered, not just the teacher’s. Discussion also supports educators to better understand what learners are thinking and to make instructional decisions based on student experiences.
