Teacher-led discussions can maximize student learning by getting students to think more deeply about a topic and share new ideas. While discussions provide an interesting and inclusive way for students to assess their knowledge in an informal manner, they run the risk of limited participation if not properly structured or if the difficulty level is not appropriate for the age group. When done effectively through open-ended questioning, discussions can challenge students and help them learn in a more collaborative way compared to working in isolation.
