How it's used
Refers to a reciprocal process where the act of teaching provides as much insight to the instructor as it does to the student. It is often used in formal or semi-formal educational contexts to describe a healthy classroom dynamic. Unlike simple collaboration, it specifically highlights the intellectual growth that happens on both sides of the desk.
Examples
Teachers and students learn from each other, and everyone gains something.
