Timing Tricks

  • by Victoria Symons Cross, PH.D.
  • July 01, 2019

Here are some ways to time in class that aren't too gimmicky or obnoxious

1. Three minute break: have students request music and play a song. Announce the genre and name of the student who made the request.

2. Discussion time - use powerpoint animation to move a dot from one place to another.
