LRNA 98G Class #3Collaborative Learning and Designing Groupwork Pt. I
In this class we define collaborative learning and discuss reasons why it is effective with diverse learners. We explore types and formats of group activities, and how to train groups for cooperation. We practice and reflect on one group activity and prepare students to create their own group activity plan.
Download the handout for this class: Collaborative Learning/Groupwork Design. This handout contains "10 Questions for Planning CL" that can help with Assignment #4. We also pass out a resource packet including pages copied from Barkeley et. al. Collaborative Learning Techniques.
If you missed this class, please read the handout, and e-mail the following Makeup Assignment by the Monday following the class you missed.
