This is the last session focussing specifically on group work. In it we review the key aspects of the previous sessions.
For this activity, you will need the questionnaire on group work.
Give the participants at least 20 minutes to fill in the questionnaire, especially section D. More time can also be given if needed by the participants.
It is important that participants think about the meaning of each aspect as discussed during the previous sessions (not their own interpreted meaning) and its implementation in their classrooms. They can refer to the previous sessions (online or on paper) for this.
You can ask the participants to write their responses in their first language if it will help in expressing their thoughts.
Encourage participants to answer carefully the last question in the questionnaire. They should think about their agenda regarding teaching through group work. This will be required for Activity Four during the session.

In Unit 3 you have discussed and reflected on a variety of topics related to group work. Here is a list for recap:
* Exploratory Talk
* Same tasks group work
* Different tasks group work
* Group composition and formation
* Ground rules for group work
* Group size and seating arrangement
* Carousel of activities for group work
* Seating arrangement during group work with computers
* Sharing ICT resources within groups
* Sharing ICT resources across groups
* Using non-ICT resources during group work
* Talking Points activity for promoting group interaction
* Recruiting classroom assistants for helping in group work
{{activity|Individual work}} Answer the questionnaire on group work. Be honest about your responses for section A and C. Be reflective about your responses for section D. Carefully and realistically plan your agenda for carrying out group work in your classroom.
{{activity|Whole group activity}} Take turns to recap meaning of the different aspects of group work and share your responses from section D. This means that one participant explains the meaning of one aspect of group work briefly. Other participants share their responses as listed in section D of the questionnaire for this aspect. Then another participant explains the meaning of another aspect followed by sharing of responses.
