No votes yet
Type of strategy: CollaborationProcessing
Learning styles: ES: Extraversion and Sensing
Groups of 4 develop a process or sequence in completing a task or problem
Directions:
- Break into teams of 4.
- Team determines the 4 steps in accomplishing the goal.
- Each person develops the details for one of the steps.
- Team goes through entire process with each person doing their step.
- Members then rotate the step they carry out so that by the end of the activity each person has person has performed each step.
Adult Example: What are the four cadre goals?
- Goal One: Technology Integration
- Goal Two: Effective Professional Development
- Goal Three: Technology Standards proficiency
- Goal Four: Networking and Collaboration
Elementary Math Example: solve (4+3)*2+(3*8)
- Step one: (4+3)=7
- Step two: (3*8)=24
- Step three: 7*2=14
- Step four: 14+24=38
Biology: Cell Division (modify the exercise to be a 6 step solution and thus teams of 6):
- Question: What are the 6 stages of Mitosis?
- Stage one: interphase
- Stage two: prophase
- Stage three: prometaphase
- Stage four: metaphase
- Stage five: anaphase
- Stage six: telophase
This is a great activity because each student gets to describe the different phases as they alternate which part they talk about.
