Has anyone tried the "observer" method for this type of student? While I understand the concept behind it, it seems fairly juvenille, and I was wondering if it has worked with adult students. It seems similar to playing "the quiet game" with younger students where the first one to talk without being called-on loses.
Usually, the Center Stage students that I have had want to speak (for a variety of reasons), and I don't see that desire disappearing because they have been assigned a job to summarize the lesson.
I'd love to hear how other instructors have used this method.
