Interdisciplinary
Learners work together when the activity requires them to work in pairs or groups to:
Discuss an issue
Solve a problem
Create a product
when they work in pairs or groups to develop a common product, design, or response; learners must collectively own the work and be mutually responsible for its outcome.
Shared responsibility
when they must resolve important issues that will guide their work together; decisions are decisions that shape the content, process, OR product of learners’ work.
Substantive decisions
What three things must learners make substantive decisions on?
Content
Process
Product
when all learners must participate in order for the team to succeed; work is divided fairly: one or two learners may do all the work for the team; require the participation of all learners.
Interdependent work
A presentation each learner shares in developing and presenting
Interdependent product development
Decision that required information distributed across all learners

Defined challenge
Problems solving happens when learners must:
- develop a soluton to a new problem
- complete a task not instructed how
- design a complex product that meets a set of requirements
What is NOT problem solving activities
Learners given all the information
Learners given the procedure
Problem solving tasks require learners to:
- investigate
- find alternatives
- explore
- design
- test
