The transfer is almost automatic and sometimes a direct copy. At other times, the transfer is adjusted slightly.

The Trigonometry Teacher (The Wizard)

Bounding about the room as if he had springs on his shoes, the Wizard teases his student audience/participants with puzzles, riddles, and reasoning.

“Chris, give it a shot. [Chris chooses Door Number 4.] Now tell us the answer you’ve selected and why.”

“Process of elimination? Good technique. Fantastic. Why?”

“Another one. [He chooses Door Number 3.] Ratio. Why?”

“Great. We did just finish talking about (ratio) the day before. Talking about what we did the day before helps us get to today.”

“Hangman. Solve puzzle.”

C O M P L E M E N T A R Y

The Wizard lets students know that they are part of the show. He tells them that he teaches them, they teach each other, and they teach themselves. He also provides a constant patter of feedback and reinforcement that, though given in a playful manner, seems to honor and dignify every answer:

“This group is hot.”

“Hear some good talking, here.”

“Holy Smokes! You got this? How?”

“No idea? Remember you can go to other groups.”

“Is this all? Check with others. Talk to teammates.”

“I’ll tell you. That’s the right one. Now, you tell me why.”

“Bingo, Linda’s ready.”
