Clarify the problem

When students do not respond, they must first clarify the problem:

1.The students feel embarrassed, the problem is too difficult, and they don't understand.

​

​

​

​


2.Students feel uninterested and

consider the discussion as a short break.

​

​

​

3.Students lack self-confidence, are not accustomed to speaking in front of others or are afraid of making mistakes.
