Q

Example of levels of reflection:
In group work there’s a range of participation. I need to
make note of who does and doesn’t participate, and think of
how to involve them all in the learning

Q

Example of levels of reflection:
I think in these group tasks some are silent but still thinking,
one or two are dominating the thinking and talking, while
others are being lazy and letting the rest of the group do the
thinking. My setting up of group tasks will need to include
strategies to ensure that all need to think, and that all can be
heard

Q

Example of levels of reflection:
Group work helps some students to learn, while others do
more learning in individual tasks. There may be a way of
combining the two so that both sets of students are catered
for in the one activity, but perhaps using a mix of individual,
pair and group tasks would be best – both for optimum
learning, and for inclusivity.
