She set her expectations clearlyso students know which chapters they need to have read, which voice they should be conversing in, how they should be constructive and she also created an interesting scenario where the students are scuba divers which captures students' interest in the session.

I really like how she asked the class to remind her about ground rules as well. She put across the message that the ground rules apply to everyone, not just the students. That creates a safe and respectful sharing environment.

It's good that she made her rules very clear. She clearly explained what she expects from the students and made it seem like an agreement. So, the students might be more cooperative and also feel greater autonomy as they go through the entire experience.

It could be made more interactive if the students were given an opportunity to contribute to setting expectations through padlet or discussion tools.

She goes down to their level and admits that she's not perfect at times too. In this case, she could create a closer rapport with the students.

She can be dramatic yet she keeps the class engaged.

She created a safe environment for all to participate. Her expectations are also set in a very clear and animated way that allows students to see it not as a 'rule' but as a 'this is how it should be'

While the facilitator affirms the student on his/her efforts on finishing the entire book and highlights the usefulness of re-reading, I am not too sure whether she should encourage students to stick to reading the assigned portion before each session so that the first responses can be captured.
