	This task is carried out in groups (and you may want to look at OER4schools Unit 3 on group work for more information about the benefits of collaborative working). Groups can be formed in different ways (group work is covered in [[OER4Schools/3.1_Group_work:_Same-task_and_different-tasks_group_work\|the OER4Schools professional learning resource Unit 3]]). The method we use here is forming groups randomly. Participants are assigned a letter from A to F randomly, and thus forms groups A to F. The lecturer should make sure that this really leads to well mixed groups, and that participants do not swap groups after groups have been allocated.

	As participants you should note that we use similar ideas for carrying out this ask as you might use as a teacher in primary or secondary education. This is called modelling, and create linkages between the methods used at various levels of education. For instance, group formation, and also explicitly making sure that “everybody understands”.

	As a first step, each group should plan how they will execute their task, including the development of a schedule for how they will use the allocated time. As the task goes over several days, each group should make an over plan for the whole activity (say across a week), and then start each morning with detailed planning of the activities for that particular day.
