Brave New Teaching: A Podcast for High School and Middle School Teachers EPISODE 124: THE BEST THING I EVER TAUGHT: GROUP WORK
How do you feel about group work? Love it or dread it? Either way, stay tuned because today marks the second episode in our four part “The Best Thing I Ever Taught” series, where we’re covering group work.
You can probably tell by the title of this episode that we love group work now…but trust us, that hasn’t always been the case. In the past, we absolutely detested it. Group work was one of those things that led to over planning, too much management, and way too much grading.
Fast forward to today, and we’re happy to report that student collaboration is one of the main pillars of our teaching practice.
We’re going to give you specific examples of group work activities that have worked brilliantly in our classes. One of them even involves students creating a podcast episode! We hope that these ideas give you some new ideas as to how you can incorporate group work that is engaging for your students and builds classroom community (without adding more work on your end).
