Mar 6 2013 - 1:00pm - 2:00pm

Student groups can be very challenging and oftentimes students express some amount of displeasure about working in groups since some students are forced to do all the work while others are freeloaders.
In this Lunch and Learn seminar, we will examine the use of group work or rather team teaching learning strategies. We will also review challenges associated with group work and offer suggestions on how we might overcome them so that learning can be impacted in powerful ways.
