1. Teachers give up control
2. Based on real-life interactions
3. Requires teachers to risk the chance that students may not want to participate.
4. Learner-Centered
5. Empowers students
6. Can be more of an investment of time on the teacher's behalf (in the beginning)
7. Students are engaged
8. Students take an active rather than passive role in their own learning.
