“Students love to have time to talk and to share gossip. In order to keep them from doing it during instruction, I apply ‘My Time’. During ‘My Time’, they must pay attention. They can not talk nor disturb others who are trying to learn and to pay attention. At the end of class, ‘Their Time’ is the last five minutes. The students want to have a few minutes to talk and to share amongst themselves.”
