Most instructors would agree that having students work in groups towards a common goal provides them with a valuable learning experience, giving them the opportunity to learn from each other and collaborate with people of diverse perspectives and experiences. But group learning can present instructors with new challenges in assessment and classroom management. How can you make sure that students are assessed appropriately based on their contributions to the group? Are group marks okay? What should you do if interpersonal conflicts arise?
Bring your lunch and join your colleagues in a collaborative group discussion where we can all share our experiences and thoughts about how to manage and assess students working in groups.
