how to work in groups

HOW CAN WE WORK BETTER TOGETHER IN GROUPS ?

We have been working in groups of two or more people for several weeks. I would like to take some time to think about how this process is working and what we can do to make it work better. Please answer the following questions using the reverse side of the paper if you need more room.

1) How do you feel about working in groups so far? What is working for you and what could be improved? What size group do you feel is best for you (pairs, 3's, 4's etc.).

2) What could you do to help whatever group your are with work better? Please be as specific as possible. The focus of this question is on you not the rest of the group or the teacher. At least three things would be nice and more would be helpful.

3) What actions or behaviors of group members would be most helpful to you.
