Engaging students in discussion

“I've learned that you can ask a question and just wait for 10 seconds. You don't have to immediately call on somebody. You can let people think and percolate, because somebody may take a few seconds to formulate a response in their mind and raise their hand. That could be the reason a student isn't participating.”
