You don't want to ask the student not to answer because he is the type of student who if you did that he would probably find some other way to be disruptive and then he wouldn't be paying attention at all. Plus, chances are that if he were not yelling out the answers, no one else would have. Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) You could try using positive reinforcement when covering the material. If the student raises his/her hand to answer the question, they get a treat such as a snack or homework pass. The student may not participate correctly in the beginning but once they see other students following the correct procedures and being rewarded, they will more than likely also act in the same manner.
