True Learning:
A Renaissance in Education
Ch 2: WORKING TOGETHER
GROUPS
Collaboration
Collaboration includes groups of all sizes. From teams of 2 and groups of four
to the entire class, students work together - to lead and to follow, to ask and to answer questions.
SELF-WORTH
The more often students interact, the stronger thinkers they become.
Self-worth blossoms and independent thinkers are the norm.
EXAMPLE
Expert Groups
Small groups focus on a key topic
and learn it well. Then they share
in their exchange group.
Growth is never by sheer chance;
it is the result of forces working together.
