Persona Profile

A lecturer in the Human-Computer Interaction Design department with 5 years of teaching experience. She attaches great importance to classroom interaction and believes group discussion is an important way to cultivate students' collaborative and thinking abilities, so she often designs various theme-based group discussion activities in class.

When organizing group discussions, she only briefly explains the discussion topics and time requirements, then lets students group freely and discuss on their own. She walks around the classroom to check on progress but usually only asks a simple question like "How's the discussion going?", lacking in-depth guidance for the discussion process. When finding poor discussion outcomes (e.g., awkward silences, off-topic chats, inconsistent progress across groups), she only repeats reminders such as "Be more active" and "Hurry up with the discussion" without targeted solutions. Ultimately, discussions in many groups become a mere formality and fail to produce valuable results.

She hopes group discussions can truly engage students and spark ideological collisions, but does not know how to optimize the organization method. When the discussion effect is poor, she lacks effective intervention and guidance methods, and worries that the group discussion session will lose its practical significance.

Activity initiator and formal supervisor, but with a lack of methods in topic guidance, process intervention and problem-solving.
