How an instructor responds to what students say can make a huge difference in the way they participate in discussions. Every student comment is an opportunity to keep building a culture of respectful discussion. Slowing down to think about how you are responding to your students can help you become more aware of how you may be either supporting or unintentionally shutting down participation in discussion.
