When do you give students informations?
on: April 25, 2005, 11:26:01 PM
I am beginning to teach and I am thinking about the materials I would like for my students to have and be provided with.  I have a question regarding this:

1.  How do you time and organize the information you give to them, particularly handouts and this sort of thing?

For example, would you hand them your "practise tips" papers from the very beginning (if they are a complete beginner)?  Would you make an entire book or packet with everything you could write about and hand that to them from the beginning and then refer to it later as these things come up (for example, memory and such)?

sincerely,
invisible

Hey Anonimus, be realistic. If you tell a man who is the killer he will never read the book in a first place. 
8) I mean, don’t tell them all you know at once. Surprise them, guide them so they can feel and experience their own intelligent solutions. And if they are not good enough it’s your turn to show them your own intelligence.
