Sometimes, I'll have a pre-printed solution on an overhead that I'll put up and quickly go through. At that point, they're usually pretty interested, because they've struggled with different parts of it. You can put up a pre-prepared solution, and they can quickly see what you've done. Typically, I don't have students put it up on the board because of the time it takes. I have given them overheads and let them copy [their answers] onto that and put it up on the board. But probably, mostly I will ask for answers, and then I'll quickly sketch out a solution on the board, saying, "This principle and these assumptions get us to this answer." By that time, since they've had to think about it, those few words mean something to them. If you said it at the very beginning, they wouldn't know what you were talking about. After they've struggled with it, you can very quickly describe what the solution would be.
