Preparation

  1. Watch a 12 minute video before class starts (or at the beginning of class).

  2. Sit with people you don’t know well. Introduce yourself and discuss/assign group roles:

  • Facilitator: Make sure the group makes progress on the task
  • Reflector: Make sure that everyone in the group contributes positive; encourage participation from everyone (e.g. What do you think? Any ideas?)
  • Resource Manager: Make sure the group seeks out the resources it needs to complete the task
  • Communicator Manager: Take responsibility to facilitate communication with each other and to the larger class/instructor
