Tech Talk Tuesdays - session 4Pauline Porcaro - CoB ADG
The Problem with Group Work - main issues
Brainstorm on the collaborative document
Group work - where and when they want and in real time
Tracking who did the work Google Drive - See Revision History
Grading group work - some thoughtsStudents could be graded on content added - monitor via Revision History
They could be asked to comment on each other’s contribution using the Comments function
Part of the assessment is structured for an individual analysis of the group work - set up a Form in Google for them to assess their team members
You could provide formative feedback as the work develops using the Comments function - this can also help to keep them on track as they know you’ll be looking
You can share a file with docs or images etc with them for the group work so everyone has the same resources as a starting point e.g. their rubric, the assessment instructions, copies of exemplars
Hold a weekly Google Hangout meeting to discuss expectations as the time nears for grading
Keeping them organised
Creating folders for all group resources
They could create their own Google calendar to help keep groups on track
Complete details, share with the group members and select settings, select CREATE
Add calendar events and ensure you copy details to the relevant calendar from the drop down box
Now see the new calendar and the event on your calendars
