ROUND TABLE DISCUSSION IN THE CLASS ROOM 11.01.2023

    Roundtable Discussion Strategy is a classroom interactive activity where every student has an equal right to participate in the discussion. 

Roundtables are generally not open to the wider students but involve a relatively small number of participants who can discuss a topic that is usually identified beforehand. 

In this strategy, students can split the topic into smaller areas for a more structured discussion.  B.Ed students have selected recommendations of different commissions on Education for discussion. 

The general aim of a roundtable discussion is to hold a close discussion and exploration of a specific topic.

Roundtable includes a facilitator for the discussion, who should ensure that everyone is included equally in the discussion and keep the discussion on track, by reminding the group of the time or gently steering the conversation if it goes too far off track.

This strategy develops students' higher-order thinking skills while building both self-confidence and respect for their peers.
