Either closely observe students working in groups in two sessions, or reflect on group work activities that you have initiated over the last week. Use these questions as a starting point for your reflections:
What were the successful elements of the group work?
What was less successful?
Can you identify why a particular group activity was successful or unsuccessful?
What would you do differently next time?
How had the students been prepared for the group work? Would a different form of preparation have enhanced the group work?
