change it up a bit. Like so…………

Begin with original ending….

<< From your mouth >> cut;

I have heard the saying that minds can be like parachutes, only operating best when they are open.

<< add>> open discusions are essential to the learning process.

A good discussion brings out various points of view(s)

<< cut>>and {replace with, as well as} the reasons behind those views. A good discussion also lets allows each participant TO analyze and judge for themselves [< add> the content of the information provided [or a similar sentence] >

without forcing views or opinions on others.

without bias.

It also provides opportunity for each student to share his or her own opinion.

When you allow open classroom discussion, and

it births an intellectual > challenge;

<< cut/rephrase >> you allow the students to find the way from what they knew to what they’re learning.>>

<> FROM what they have known to what they are now learning. OR grow from beyond their present state of knowledge to higher levels of understanding.

OR rephase enitrely:

<> thusly allowing the participating students to navigate from previous knowledge to new levels of understanding.

In your classroom < << edit>> when a new concept is introduced in the classroom> and open forum the vehicle by which those ideas are expressed, the there is no telling how many different understandings and interpretations one may have. there is no limit to the possibilites of what can be accomplished. ((or something like that, along those lines; similar sentence))

Finish with original opening:

Teachers must encourage classroom discussion and the challenge. thereof. << edit>> It’s the only way to put the student minds in action. TO: It’s the most effective way to activate the mind of the student.

So that it reads as such:

I have heard the saying that minds can be like parachutes, only operating best when they are open. Open discusions are essential to the learning process.

A good discussion brings out various points of view, as well as the reasons behind those views. A good discussion allows each participant to analyze and judge for themselves the content of the information provided without bias. It also provides opportunity for each student to share his or her own opinion. When you allow open classroom discussion, it births an intellectual challenge; thusly allowing the participating students to navigate from previous knowledge to new levels of understanding.

When a new concept is introduced in the classroom, and open forum the vehicle by which those ideas are expressed,

there is no limit to the possibilites of what can be accomplished. ((or similar sentence))

Teachers must encourage classroom discussion and the challenge thereof. It’s the most effective way to activate the mind of the student.

That’s how i would do it. Sorry i couldn’t be of more help, I’m exhausted and my brain is fried. ♥ Good luck on it!! ♥

add a comma between “challenge, you allow”. change “knew” to know. Dont start both sentences with “A good discussion”. Change second sentence to ” Also, a good discussion a allows each participant to anaylze and judge for themselves without forcing views or opinions on others.” change last sentence – maybe As I quote from you,

or As I quote from Mrs. Jones, “minds can be like parachutes, only operating best when they are open.”

At the Beginning put the teacher in the middle say there may be to many understandings of things like algebra or History.

For this passage, i might make in basic terms mild modifications, if my purpose have been to maintain it on the brink of your wording: “whether the information on your e book can help your declare of the paranormal, you nevertheless be unsleeping of the well-known skeptics who discredit your ideals via capitalizing on their suggestions-set for the time of your text textile, in which you’re saying…” i might evaluate rewording the passage into a minimum of two shorter sentences, if attainable. What you have written right that is totally a mouthful, and the sentence isn’t even finished. is this meant to be addressed directly to the author of the e book on the paranormal, or are you scripting this as a e book evaluate? while you’re writing it as a e book evaluate, i might change from 2d-guy or woman (you) to 3rd-guy or woman (he). That sounds greater professional. sturdy success with it!
