Most of the students (undergraduate and many graduate) had not yet had an opportunity in their academic career to organize and lead a classroom discussion. Feedback from students was overwhelmingly positive. Students appreciated the opportunity to work through the process of organizing and leading a facilitated discussion and noted the boost in confidence this activity provided them for general public speaking skills. Students also noted value in the expectation that they were to provide questions of other student presentations. Students liked having the limits of a 30- minute period for the presentation and Q&A with a buffer for the instructor to fill
