Many educators are familiar with the “fishbowl” discussion method in which a team of students moves to the center of the room to have a discussion while the remaining class members look on. To liven the discussion, and to give the observers the opportunity to contribute, leave one seat vacant at the discussion table. If an observer has a burning comment to contribute, he/she quickly moves to the hot seat to join the fishbowl, then exits once his/her comment has been voiced.
