Activity:
In this session, you will reflect on your collaborative project experiences from the self-study activity, with the entire class.
- In groups of 2 to 3, refer to your ‘Reflections’ document describing your collaborative project experience that you created during your self-study exercise, and then discuss and share your experiences with your group members. Remember to share any challenges and difficulties you may have encountered during this time.
- Next, discuss the following:
- To what extent do you believe collaboration might improve teaching methods and the ability for a teacher to teach subject content?
- In what ways might collaboration benefit a teacher in general?
- Share your thoughts with the entire class in a tutor-led discussion.
Teachers use search engines, online databases and email to find people and resources for collaborative projects (KD.4.g).
