A problem is posed, students think alone about the question for a specified amount of time, then form pairs to discuss the question with someone in the class, usually a teammate. During the share time, students are called upon to share with the class as a whole. Students take turns stating answers or ideas without recording them. Round Robin can be used with children too young to write or when participation rather than a product is the goal. There are multiple Jigsaw variations.
Teams simply trade problems with another team.
