One of the most important dynamics I've come to appreciate during my tenure as an adjunct instructor, is the effective use of "Learning Groups."
Although this particular course made several excellent points, one point in particular greatly resonated with me. "Impart students with the skills that they need to succeed in groups. Many students have never worked in a group setting. They need some practice in areas like discussion, active listening, giving and receiving constructive criticism, and managing disagreements."
Just curious, what learning group methods have you found to be successful?
