Slide2Some background about my A.R.
Rising third year in Math Leadership Program
During 1
st
summer in MLP, need to choose an area of Action Research to work on in the following school year
Always struggled with creating meaningful group work as a teacher
Impacted by my experiences in this class and another math course
Realized the importance of group work; decided no time but the present to face my fear head on
Slide3My goals for today
Share my experience with you so that you will….
Believe in the power of collaborative group work in your classes
Learn from another teachers experience that change takes time
Inspire you to face a fear of yours in your practice
Provide some strategies to use in your class when using group work
Slide4Why is collaboration important?
Quote from
Heibert
Statistic about what students are learning in direct instruction
Slide5Beginning of the school year
Established group work rules
Set up class jobs
Alloted
time in class for students to reflect on working in groups
Had students work on the
Handshake Problem
Slide6Marilyn Burns “Rules for Groupwork
”
You are responsible for your own work and behavior
You must be willing to help any group member who asks
You may ask the teacher for help only when every group member has the same question
Each partner is responsible for being able to explain the solution to the problem.
