Abstract
Brief excerpt from interview: There's always a lot of discussion, and I find the students are more than willing to talk. Once they get past initial fears, the class is opening and accepting, and they want to voice their opinions. We have no trouble getting lots of discussion in our class . . . If your classroom is accepting and you really encourage their opinions, students are more than ready, which then generates more discussion throughout. When we do an in-class reaction to a short article, and they have to write about it first, the quality of the discussion can be better.
