In the column "M" - "minus" - everything that was not liked in the lesson was recorded, seemed boring, evoked hostility, remained incomprehensible, or information that, in the student's opinion, was not necessary for him, useless. In the column "I" - "interesting" - students enter all the curious facts that were learned in the lesson, what else would you like to know on this issue, questions to the teacher.
