In an educational setting, speed dating consists of a series of brief one-on-one interactions between students (Murphy, 2005; Muurlink & Matas, 2011). At the start of a speed dating session, students are given a topic or question to discuss. Each student sits facing another student.

What is speed dating presentation?

In the “traditional” approach, each student team presented to the entire class one after another. Alternatively, in the “speed dating” approach, student teams paired up to reciprocally present their project and discuss their progress. Next, teams changed pairings, and the process repeated.
