{{activity|stgw|: | {{activity|stgw|: Discussion in pairs on pace grouping.|10}} Consider the following statements and associated questions for reflection on Judith’s clips: | ||
In this interview Judith informed us that there were 9 slow learners in her class and only 4 formed a slow pace group; these 4 scored 0 but the other 5 were dispersed in other groups who got correct answers to the same problems. This indicates that not only is ''participation'' higher in mixed pace groups but ''achievement'' can be too (and research with bigger samples backs this up). Nevertheless, the 4 who achieved poorly were also regularly absent so their prior knowledge base was probably lower. Discuss: '''Do you think this means that the absentees are even more likely to benefit from peer interaction in a mixed group?''' | In this interview Judith informed us that there were 9 slow learners in her class and only 4 formed a slow pace group; these 4 scored 0 but the other 5 were dispersed in other groups who got correct answers to the same problems.
