Consider the effect on students' processing of information and analysis of data when an instructor says immediately to the first respondent to his question: "Right, good." As if to assure that further thinking will be terminated, the teacher either proceeds to re-word, repeat, and exemplify the answer, or goes on to the next topic. Learning being a highly individual process, people learn at different rates and in varying ways. Rapid acceptance of a correct answer favors the faster thinker/speaker who has completed his thought processes; those in mid-thought have their answers terminated prematurely.
