We are seeing that encouraging and promoting peer-to-peer academic discussion and interaction is harder than ever before. Students are hesitant and can even be resistant to speaking about academic topics in the classroom, especially when it involves critical thinking skills. The skill of academic discussion is often especially difficult for students who are learning English as their second language or have an intellectual disability. We have found some success at Jordan High School by introducing and utilizing collaborative games that promote academic discussions, negotiations and problem-solving around literacy and numeracy. We would like to increase and expand the types of games and amount of games we have for students to interact and speak with one another around academic topics.
