Want to make sure key concepts are being understood?

So you're ready to step out and begin sharing your faith, but how will you know if your friends are "catching" the message? You can read through The Stranger with them, but have they actually understood what's being taught?

Although you may try to get confirmation that they understand, not wanting to look foolish people will often answer "yes, I'm with you" when really they're not. Or they may think they understand when really it's just not clicking.

Wouldn't it be nice to know just how much they've understood? To know if something needs to be reviewed? With so much material to absorb, as a student it would great to have a way to confirm that you're actually learning something. And since each concept builds on the previous ones, wouldn't it be helpful to know when you're ready to move on?

Ideas for Using the WorkBook

In class: During the teaching session, stop at the end of every section and answer the questions at that point. It will only take a few minutes to complete the quiz and then check the answers. Use this option if:

  • The student will not be able to do the WorkBook homework on his or her own time. Doing the WorkBook during class time will add another 3 to 5 hours to your overall study time.
  • The student seems to have problems comprehending each lesson as you progress (not a very common problem). The WorkBook will be a double-check before you move on to new material.
  • You are teaching a person who speaks English as a second language. In this case it is important to use the WorkBook to insure that the material is being fully understood.

As homework: This is the preferred method. Leave all WorkBook questions for the students to complete on their own at home. This will cause them to think through the material a second time while doing the questions. When you meet again, then review the answers to make sure they are correct. This will be the third time the material has been covered. We have found this to be very effective.
