Quiet teaching experiment in geology at Berkeley
UC Berkeley Associate Professor Frederick Berry tested a silent discussion method in a 74-student introductory geology class. Students debated ideas, with some satisfied by the interactive approach and others bored. End-of-quarter options split: most chose exams, some wrote self-directed papers including a fantasy geology topic on gold and a study of Surinam placer mining.
