B. Student-student interaction
This theme addresses how well students communicate with one another in class.
Classes where students have opportunities to communicate with each other help
students effectively construct their knowledge. By emphasizing the collaborative and
cooperative nature of scientific work, students share responsibility for learning with
each other, discuss divergent understandings, and shape the direction of the class.
