They must see how it effects them to get buy in. We as teachers have to create authentic connects to the TEKs or material in order to have that information stick.

Negatives tend to be "rabbit trails" and lack of focus. Others are students who hang on the shirt tails of others and do not commit to the product. carol_dowsett https://padlet.com/mercedez_rassi/ufcs152tbnhc/wish/299132020 2018-10-31 18:26:52 UTC https://padlet.com/mercedez_rassi/ufcs152tbnhc/wish/299132020 Peer teaching https://padlet.com/mercedez_rassi/ufcs152tbnhc/wish/299132118 Can get lous in class]]> 2018-10-31 18:27:04 UTC https://padlet.com/mercedez_rassi/ufcs152tbnhc/wish/299132118 Students are more inclined to participate and they like peer feed back. https://padlet.com/mercedez_rassi/ufcs152tbnhc/wish/299132131 2018-10-31 18:27:06 UTC https://padlet.com/mercedez_rassi/ufcs152tbnhc/wish/299132131 Novelty and Variety and choice kimberly_cobb https://padlet.com/mercedez_rassi/ufcs152tbnhc/wish/299132160 2018-10-31 18:27:09 UTC https://padlet.com/mercedez_rassi/ufcs152tbnhc/wish/299132160 Students are more willing to participate when they have others to help them or explain. https://padlet.com/mercedez_rassi/ufcs152tbnhc/wish/299132259 Some of the negatives would be off task. 

]]> 2018-10-31 18:27:20 UTC https://padlet.com/mercedez_rassi/ufcs152tbnhc/wish/299132259 Collaboration allows students to talk together and share ideas. A benefit is it helps reluctant or struggling students to respond to what has been shared. A draw back is that sometimes one or two students will allow others to do the majority of the work without authentic participation. https://padlet.com/mercedez_rassi/ufcs152tbnhc/wish/299132278 2018-10-31 18:27:22 UTC https://padlet.com/mercedez_rassi/ufcs152tbnhc/wish/299132278 some kids are more willing to take risks when they an collaborate.

It also allows students to experience how others problem solve. The problem with collaboration is that students are so social that any time you allow them to talk, they are off topic. https://padlet.com/mercedez_rassi/ufcs152tbnhc/wish/305009882 2018-11-15 20:04:59 UTC https://padlet.com/mercedez_rassi/ufcs152tbnhc/wish/305009882 Students collaborating in class gives them an opportunity to hear others' ideas and see how other people learn. They are also able to have something explained to them in various ways (sometimes better than how the teacher has explained something to them). https://padlet.com/mercedez_rassi/ufcs152tbnhc/wish/305009892 Negatives--off-task behavior, one student not doing anything because the group has taken over & is doing everything for them, one student feeling ashamed because they don't feel like they have anything to contribute to the collaboration/discussion.]]> 2018-11-15 20:05:01 UTC https://padlet.com/mercedez_rassi/ufcs152tbnhc/wish/305009892 I love the idea of having students bounce ideas off of each other and helping think through a process. https://padlet.com/mercedez_rassi/ufcs152tbnhc/wish/305009904 These students are very social and love to spend more time off-topic than what they are supposed to be doing.]]> 2018-11-15 20:05:03 UTC https://padlet.com/mercedez_rassi/ufcs152tbnhc/wish/305009904 Students are able to bounce ideas off of one another and I believe they really enjoy that, especially when they don't fully understand what is going on.

Collaboration teaches students teamwork, accountability, and fosters creativity. However, student collaboration can also lead to student disengagement.
