Especially for High School Teachers: The Chat Stool
Jacobson, Erica K.
Journal of Chemical Education, v81 n7 p921 Jul 2004
A new classroom technique called "stool time", which can be used while teaching chemistry to students is described. It is advised that in a break from lecture, the teacher should shift to a wooden stool to share an anecdote, a bit of information about a famous figure of science, which will help the students to see the teacher more as a person.
