Wait time 2 is the amount of pause time in the middle of the student response that a teacher gives before responding.

The challenges of longer wait times it takes control away from the teacher, as students have more control over the structure of the conversation.  The teacher may feel that the conversation goes in unexpected directions.

The benefits of longer wait times are that it allows for students to feel comfortable expanding on ideas, and take the discourse to more in depth areas.]]> 2017-02-08 23:56:22 UTC https://padlet.com/afterclass/em49hlrm3fa5/wish/152648340 Cameron https://padlet.com/afterclass/em49hlrm3fa5/wish/152648358 Wait Time I is the time you allow between when you ask a question and student response.
