Student Patterns

In most pictures, while teachers were talking or lecturing, one hundred six students were sitting on desks (49%); one hundred fifty six were responding (73%) to teachers' questions; eighty four were listening (39%). Students were generally gathering around tables doing experiments, projects.

In some instances the pre-service teachers included speech balloons to indicate teacher-student interaction. In these pictures, teachers were engaged in conversation with their students rather than talking at their students. In some drawings, two or three students were doing an experiment in front of the class as the teacher guided them and their classmates were watched.
