Class Highlights

🤝 Collaborative & Interactive – Engage in group discussions and peer learning.
❌ No Fear of Mistakes! – This class encourages learning through challenge.

Class Experience

🔹 Try It First! – Students attempt problems independently before discussing.
🔹 Guided Discussion – The teacher breaks down solutions step by step and encourages students to explain their reasoning.
🔹 Group Learning – Work with classmates in breakout rooms or class discussions.
This is not a lecture-style class. Instead, students actively solve problems and learn through discussion.

Shy students may listen and participate via chat, while confident students can explain their problem-solving strategies aloud.
