John,

I'd say it depends on whether you intend "you" to be included in who "knows."  Will the teacher discover that he or she knows something or that the students know something?

Which is correct/sounds better:

1.  Both you and your students will discover that YOU know . . .
2.  Both you and your students will discover that THEY know . . .

Or should I just re-work the thing?

Thanks,
John
