This video has been created to explain the findings of the SERP Institute and get these "teacher tips" into the hands of teachers. Did you try this strategy? What did you find?

Explaining one's ideas and hearing the reactions of others promotes learning. Thus in classrooms in which a few students do all the talking, learning opportunities are distributed inequitably. Over time silent students may come to believe they are not expected to talk, and may disengage entirely. When all students are given the time to explain their thinking, a greater investment of every student in the instructional activity is demanded and rewarded, and the opportunity for students to serve as learning resources for each other is maximized. https://www.serpinstitute.org/5x8-card/vital-student-actions

Development of the 5x8 Card was led by Phil Daro through a SERP collaboration with the Oakland and San Francisco school districts.
SERP has been supported to conduct this work by The S.D. Bechtel, Jr. Foundation.
