To solicit suggestions from students which will help their groups work better and thus involve them in setting up or modifying class procedures. Have groups or individuals develop group exercises for use by the whole class. Have students address specific problems which they discussed in the assignment or which he professor or students have observed in class. Students read their comments to their groups and obtain feedback, questions or reflections from their peers. The class develops a master list of helpful behaviors and activities to be used by individuals in their groups.
Groups outline a strategy for their groups to work better together.
Strategies are then shared as part of a whole class discussion. We have been working in groups of two or more people for several weeks. I would like to take some time to think about how this process is working and what we can do to make it work better. Please answer the following questions. Use the reverse side of the paper if you need more room.
