About this listen

 Think-Pair-Share is a classroom classic — but let’s be honest, it often feels rushed and shallow. In this episode of Edtervene, we introduce a more intentional and impactful alternative: Reflect–Engage–Expand Cycles. Dr. Lydia Elliott explores how adding reflection before and after peer discussion leads to deeper thinking, greater student engagement, and stronger connections between ideas. You’ll learn how this upgraded strategy builds metacognitive awareness, encourages active listening, and helps students revise their thinking in meaningful ways. Whether you're teaching in-person, online, or hybrid, this episode offers simple tweaks with powerful results — no tech or major redesign required. Tune in to learn how a few extra minutes of reflection can completely transform the way students learn from each other — and themselves.
