2.  It requires collaboration and cooperation.  Different students should have different jobs. (see Roles in Group Work post)
3.  Students need to know how groups work.

For example: "Create a Padlet about the Civil War." You could assign one student to look for information about the causes, another to look for information about the battles, another to edit the work students present and another to actually present the group's work.]]> 2017-06-08 16:16:11 UTC https://padlet.com/gsmith44/amv586ssxxuo/wish/175760739
