Student Groups

We all use student groups in our face-to-face classes. But online student groups, for both online and on-campus courses, can be a very useful and successful way to encourage student-student interaction as well as a means to encourage students to build the course a bit at a time.

Student groups take some getting used to for both faculty and students--students are not used to having so much power and control. Hooray! It takes them out of the passive role and into ACTIVE learning!
