The Professional Teacher
Support for teaching professionals in the classroom and beyondEffective group work through effective plenaries
2nd December 2015
Most of us have had lessons in which our students have been involved in group work, but the lesson hasn't quite gone to plan; maybe some students have contributed very little, maybe we didn't get the combination of students right, maybe social talk rather than learning talk has dominated, maybe students didn't really know what was expected of them and therefore they didn't know what to do.
