It's NOT Cheating, It's Collaboration

Rodica Cazacu ⟨rodica.cazacu@gcsu.edu⟩

Abstract:

Collaborative work is an essential part of learning and for the past couple of years I have tried to make it essential for all my classes. I want my students to feel that benefit not just when they work on some problems during class time or outside of the class for a group assignment, but also to experience the benefit of group collaboration during assessment time. In all my applications classes I have unit assessments during semester and each such assessment has an individual and a group component. This presentation will look into how I use group corrections and review for my unit tests and how I use that to strengthen the group relations, making my students feel more confident while learning to trust themselves and their group mates. I will also talk about how I determined a way of seeing if there is an improvement in my students’ work and how I used their results to motivate them to challenge themselves and their teammates
