Chapter 5: Teaching the Individual, Working with the Group

In a classroom, there are individual assignments and then group assignments. This chapter talked about the many different ways that a teacher must include individuals when they work alone and when they work together.

I was not surprised when students said that they wanted to work with their friends more. However, I was in utter shock to why students wanted to work with friends on projects. They said they didn’t mind working on in class projects with randomly assigned groups, but if they have out of class projects they would prefer to work with friends. These students said it is easier to work outside of school with friends since they already know where they live.
