Do
-Speak pleasantly and politely to the group.
-Respect the contribution of every speaker.

-Think about your contribution before you speak. How best can you answer the question/ contribute to the topic?
-Try to stick to the discussion topic. Don’t introduce irrelevant information.
-Be aware of your body language when you are speaking.
-Agree with and acknowledge what you find interesting

Don’t

-Lose your temper. A discussion is not an argument.
-Shout. Use a moderate tone and medium pitch.
-Use too many gestures when you speak. Gestures like finger pointing and table thumping can appear aggressive.
-Dominate the discussion. Confident speakers should allow quieter students a chance to contribute.
-Draw too much on personal experience or anecdote. Although some tutors encourage students to reflect on their own experience, remember not to generalize too much.
