reciprocal teaching

Reciprocal teaching is an educational approach that enhances reading comprehension through collaborative dialogue. In this method, students take turns leading a discussion about a text, employing four key strategies: summarizing, questioning, clarifying, and predicting. Each student engages with the material, asking questions and clarifying points, while also summarizing content and predicting what might happen next. This technique fosters active participation and deeper understanding, as students learn from each other and develop critical thinking skills. It empowers learners to become more independent and confident in their comprehension abilities.
