If it's a C.A.M.P student let me know and I'll tell them to back off on
my suggestion that they try to participate enthusiastically in classroom
discussion!!

Subject: Student that Talks Too Much?


Dear TBers,

I had a faculty member come to me today with a classroom management
issue that I didn't know how best to handle.  Can people on this list
help?

The faculty member came to me for advise on how to handle a student that
constantly raises their hand and tries to answer every question asked.
They also are constantly asking questions.  Many times the questions
and/or answers are not related to what is being talked about in class.
Other students are showing body language that suggests they are getting
annoyed.

What can be done?
