Student-Faculty Interaction

In these interactions the faculty member models ways to use and think about information. The faculty member shares his/her own problem solving strategies and coaches the student when areas for improvement are identified. Students likewise share their fresh perspectives and let faculty know when points are unclear. The enthusiasm that a faculty member brings to his/her field is key in motivating student learning.

Many of the tools used for faculty/student interaction can also be used for student/student interaction.

A few of the models listed here are designed for one-way (faculty to student) communication, and are not truly models for interaction.
