Changes following student comments

Comment on the 2022 semester: Following the success of the previous semester, it was observed that students found it more convenient to engage and converse in small groups of three. To sustain this effective approach, the professor will move among each group to facilitate discussions. This year, we will persist with this method to promote collaborative learning and augment student involvement.
