|content=Use this section to describe what the resource is about, mostly for a practising teacher. The strategy section will do the job to offer a more technical description. For example: "Is there a way to nurture group talk in the class? These five pages of archived advice collect numerous questions for interacting in group talk, such as "‘What do you think?’ ‘What’s the matter with that idea?’ What convinces you that they are right or wrong?’. The document has activities and examples for maintaining constructive group talk, and classroom factors which play a part in such talk."
