  10. Think of your own experiences with learning. Pair up with a person nearby. The purpose of this “paired think-aloud” is to get to know each other better and to practice listening. One student should describe his/her learning experience. The other should record what the student says. The recorder should also ask questions necessary in order to write the other’s information correctly and encourage the speaker to explain what he/she means. Finally, pairs will switch roles and complete the exercise again.
