A no-prep, five minute activity
Get students thinking, discussing and sharing what they have to say with this easy-to-faciliate, no prep, and five-minute activity: Think Pair Share.
Think Pair Share is a simple, straightforward activity you can use in your classroom anytime during your teaching. It requires little to no preparation on behalf of faculty and gives pairs of students the opportunity to exchange ideas, which can prepare them for more complex collaborative opportunities.

Save time by having students assess one another.
In our upcoming 45-minute workshop, we will teach faculty how to help students give better feedback to other students for non-graded, in-class activities.
