Students who are rugged individualists may balk. Students may give each other poor or confusing advice. Aggressive students may dominate the group, while meek students may be silenced. Appoint a time keeper in each group. Define what your role will be in the groups.
Students exchange copies of their drafts.
Group members take the draft home and write comments in response to them. The following class period, the group meets to discuss their written responses. Students bring copies of drafts and distribute them to their group. Group members take turns reading the draft out loud, or, if the room is crowded, members can read silently. Groups take notes on the drafts and relay their comments orally.
