Why might it be an effective instructional method to use while tutoring?
Why is it important to not provide additional verbal instruction between the

Why is it important to use a rapid pace, explicit and concise questions, and to use

etc..). The article needs to have relevant educational or academic goals/ focus as part of
the media or technology described. After reading this article, you write a
response/reflection that briefly compares the idea of CIM
