Question 2

In response, you say,
 
  a. Put your students into heterogeneous groups and give them a multiday, multi-step project to complete together..
  b. Ask students to identify peers with whom they'd like to be grouped and then set up groups accordingly..
  c. Have a class discussion about what it takes for people to work together cooperatively, and address concrete behaviors that you will teach and reinforce with students..
  d. Give student groups a simple task to complete together, and when it's done, talk about what parts went well and what parts didn't..
