Wade, Rahima C.
Teaching and Teacher Education, v10 n2 p231-43 Mar 1994

Students' estimation of the worth of their ideas was an important factor. Men and older students most often believed their ideas made important contributions. Topic, classroom climate, and advance preparation strongly influenced student participation. (SM)
